what do all you Omegaphiles think of this combo?

Although I am not a citizen of Belgium, I respect and admire your service to your country. While you are on the mend, I hope you find solace here with you new family. Welcome Nick2T

I just phoned up the OMEGA Boutique on Fifth Ave in NYC. I am looking for an Omega strap for my Speedmaster so I thought I would give an AD a call and see how there prices compare to that of Ofrei. Well the experience was horrible. I initially spoke to a women that was trying to help me find what I was looking for. She put me on hold for what seemed like ten minutes. I am a patient person so I thought I would give this person the benefit of the doubt. While I was on hold a total of seven different people picked up the call to ask if they could help. It sounds as if this boutique is in a state of chaos. I would hope that a person calling one of the premiere locations of a luxury watch brand would experience better service than what I just received. BTW, I still don't have a price.

My "X" is back in town

I am so attracted to this model but a little afraid of its size... beautiful none the less!

I am glad you stopped by to say hello. You are missed and so are your amazing wrist shots!

This might be in the running; thanks M!

If I'm not mistaken, LHOOQ's strap started life looking like the first picture in my post; golden brown. It certainly aged well with an amazing patina!

This one caught my eye too...

Thinking of giving the bracelet on my Speedmaster Professional a rest during the winter months. The deployant clasp is on its way but I still haven't decided on which leather strap I want to buy. Many have suggested the Hirsch Medici, which fits nicely with its curved ends. I will be wearing this strap both at work and at play. Please weigh-in with your thoughts and suggestions. I am open to opinions on both style and color. Thank you

for straps and bracelets?

Where is the line drawn, between silver and white, as to the year of production?

I would say white

Our little community is a better place with you in it. Congratulations K on your 1000th post! Let the good times roll.

I always use an optical cloth. Should I stay away from alcohol based cleaners? Thank you, vlydog

I really enjoyed DSN's model on this perforated rubber strap.

Love this one Ubi; nice score! Looks right at home on the marble. A little vintage aqualung here too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqZmtq5LhFo
