Hopstretch Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 A pity because it is an absolute beauty in the metal. I've gone to the dark side and am wearing this today: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdipisReks1 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) Well shit. My all original (well, the bezel was replaced, but I have the original) pre-moon 01'69 145.022 is now apparently valuable. Makes up for all the money I've lost on watches, over the last 18 months (ok, fine, I've come out ahead). I'll be wearing it a lot more. Won't sell. I did have to up the insurance . Same with my with-box-and-papers '68 GMT. On 11/14/2016 at 8:37 AM, Hopstretch said: A pity because it is an absolute beauty in the metal.

Hopstretch Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 If it makes you feel any better, I didn't find it particularly useful or rewarding. Handed off to the wife, who does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudeWolf Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Btw, what's the general consensus on Glycine? I've seen it pop up on Massdrop and some designs are interesting, but border on tad too garish for me. This seems like the right kind of black.

VPI Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Haven't picked up a watch in forever and I guess I have been talking about them a lot lately as I have gotten two this week for gifts. Had looked at Shinola quite a bit in recommending them for friends but never picked one up for myself. Seems like a decent watch. Also got a fancy Apple Watch that I need to open up. All blacked out with metal link band so I need to decide if I like the Dusty treatment or really need an Apple Watch.

EdipisReks1 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I've decided on a new look, for the weekend. I think it works rather well on the NATO (from clockwork synergy). If I had my NOS bezel installed, the blues would be almost identical. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdipisReks1 Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Thanks! I like the NATO on this watch. Enough that I bought a grey on black striped one for the Speedy. The Omega 1171 bracelet is a bit less nice than an Oyster, and the Speedy is a chunky-monkey (the Speedy definitely doesn't want to slide under a cuff), so I see it as being more likely to live on a NATO than the GMT, but it's been a nice change.

Dreadhead Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 So who has any recommendations on where to by Omegas at a good price I'd appreciate it. I am pretty sure that I want to get my wife this for our 10 year anniversary: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdipisReks1 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) If you don't care about grey market, Jomashop is great. They can typically order what you need, though wait times may vary. Edited February 13, 2017 by EdipisReks1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Enigma Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 ^ agreed.If you don't plan to sell the watch any time soon, no reason not to look grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
