b16a2 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I think my love of timepieces is wearing off onto my family now. My mum has expressed how she adores the vintage Omega Seamasters, for their simplicity and also due to the history that they come with. I mentioned to her how nice Longines watches are, and she saw this piece for sale and decided to buy it to replace her old Argos quartz watch.

Shundi Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Very nice! My grandmother had a Bulova manual wind from the 30's that couldn't have been more than a few mm wide...seriously it's like maybe 8 MM x 10 mm...insane how a mechanical movement could be produced to power those... It looks like a classic 1940-1955 swiss vintage...a lot of Omega's around that time have a similar look...not sure on a model or whatnot but i'll try to do a little digging... Hope your mom enjoys it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
