Last one, for a while...

Post by sinner » Fri Dec 24, 2010 8:55 am

Watch fund is now at $17. Always wanted one of these. "Traditional" version with solid caseback and hesalite crystal. Didn't "blow me away", initially but, after wearing it for a few hours, I know this one is a keeper.

Just beautiful. It took me a while to warm up to these, but I think it's gonna be my next watch. That's about as classic as it gets. Congrats! :thumbsup:

An absolute classic. I too would opt for the classic hesalite version. Your pictures are great as well. :thumbsup:

Absolute classic - really a must have for any collection. You done real good with that one. I've wanted one of those for a long time but have beverages committed to one. Is like to change that sometime.

Good call, sinner

This was the first modern Omega I bought. It's a classic and well-priced for the iconic watch it is. Yes, many like the variants ("sapphire sandwich", etc.) and others boo-hoo anything but the older movement (321) yadda yadda, , but you can't beat the 3570.50 as a super watch. This will never leave my collection.
For you fashion-conscience, it goes with everything.
