    Amazing watch by a very seldom seen brand. Very cool. I want one. Thanks for posting this.

    I'm wearing the Omega Constellation that I inherited from my Dad. He bought it new in 1958. I'd love it if any of you can give me any information on it. I believe it's called a crosshair dial.

    I hate the Speidel bracelet and would love an original, but I'm not having much luck finding anything.

    It sure feels small after wearing the 42 and 44mm watches I usually wear.

    Here's a recent purchase of mine: a 1960 Omega 18k rose gold wristwatch. Omega 266 movement.

    I wanted a formal watch for use when I wear French cuffs and gold cufflinks. Style is similar to a PP Calatrava; Vacheron, Zenith and GP also used a similar style. Sorry for the poor photo...

    My Master Compressor is on a bracelet but otherwise the same. I really love this watch. When my house was burglarized and they stole most of my watches this is the one that I missed the most. Got a replacement pretty quickly too.

    That is one big honker. 2.4 CM thick case?!

    I inherited a '50s vintage Titus swiss auto from my father in law; gold, very similar styling and excellent condition. Got it serviced and a new lizard band, on the winder for occasions that call for a dress watch.

    Whichever, it's a bigun.

    I got my Ferrari SS Scuderia the other day and thought it was big with a 1.1 cm thick x 4.4 cm diameter case.

    The 3940 made a brief appearance today. It is arguably the finest watch in my modest collection.

    of course, but you could use it in 4000m depth of water. eventhough i don't think any of the watches will ever experience that. :D

    On the contrary the titanium makes it much lighter. If that watch was stainless steel it would be MUCH heavier. Cool piece.

    It sure has. I hope that all is well with you. I was just back in Monterey last week and I was thinking back to that one trip where everyone met up there. That was crazy.

    Thanks for the link. I might get one for my submariner.
