Post by rockmastermike » Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:08 pm

Just arrived at the casa thanks to UPS COD -Seamaster Chrono ref 176.007 - obviously not OEM bracelet but I'm working on that.

Quick and Dirty shots - with more detail(s) to come later.

Mike, since when do you have such good taste in watches? :mrgreen: ;)


I'm sure Mike will post more, but in the meantime, I'll add that this beauty is powered by the predecessor to the Lemania 5100. It's a very interesting Omega, and one that I have carried a torch for for quite a while now.

thanks guys.....this one dates to 1970 and looks better (and probably runs better) than I do and I'm only 3 years older than the watch.
