I don't think I would buy it but this watch has been on my mind this week.

My new superior wears a Rolex Seadweller. The other wears a very lovely PAM 312. Haven't found an opporunity to talk to them about it.
Seiko 6139 Progue. Has the debatable "First automatic chronograph" title and is also a space watch but it was a pita to match whatever I was wearing.

I'm in the same spot. Those I can afford don't excite me and those that inspire me are way out of my means. :banghead:
That's true, the newer models have a layer of AR coating on the glass under the cyclops, would probably be a hassle to remove.
The cyclops doesn't bother me though.

It's tough being a watch lover.
Oops! I must have read the title in a hurry.

Consider sending it back to Bienne.
Despite the price, Omega does a fantastic restoration job. My hierloom 1970s Geneve came back with a new dial, date wheel and plexi glass, i'm rather amazed...

I think most of their watches just look odd on leather/rubber straps, apart from those vintage subs on leather natos.
Saw one of these last night. Not too common a watch

That bezel needs to be removed and cleaned, look at that all that muck on the lugs :banghead:
As mikey said, Singapore :-!
Hong Kong/Macau again sometime in September for a friend's bachelor party.
Would a locally owned company count? We lack the skills and facilities necessary to develop watches here.
Azimuth...
Yay or Nay?

Prices. Some watches I yearn for are horrible financial decisions.
Nothing on the wrist today for the next two weeks i'm afraid, watch is out for servicing :(
I'm gonna live vicariously through your great pictures.:thumbs:
Today was a rather interesting day, I spotted a Steinhart Ocean One with a green bezel on the guy seated across from me in the train.
I thought it was just another Sub LV but the size of watch,...
