    A confession, in relation to CFR's watch for today.

    For years, I admired the Omega 'Fat Arrow' of 1953 and the Dynamic - without realising that the Dynamic was Omega's hommage to the Fat Arrow.

    Exactly. And the Dynamic - as you know - is not hard to find...

    The model 5203 has tempted me, from time to time. However, it's a relatively small watch (36.5mm) and, in good shape, it's not cheap. The movement (Omega 1108/ETA 2892) is easy to get serviced, though.

    You saw me searching Chrono24? How did you do that?

    I guessed...

    There's also a rarer and very interesting Dynamic (5202) a model produced for the Japanese market:

    I sold a collectible Orient last week, so I'll wear a different one that isn't for sale, blue Somes.



    Too many watches, not enough wrists.
