Great sub-forum!

Worked on...repaired...and...cleaned by our very own Yoda. This thing looked like it was at the bottom of the sea for a decade, completely rusted. Really wish I had taken a pic prior to this.

Gorgeous gen Omega 960

Movement blends nicely with that case.

Just recieved this one.

Gen Omega 960
Not yet serviced. Working condition and keeps time.

Wow Yoda, that will be a marvel once restored!

I simply happened to have the opportunity to buy it, but it is far away from my taste and I will sell it to a friend after the service and when I have installed a new seconds wheel, my friend is all over the place when it comes to chronographs.

I think this is one ugly motherfucker. Breitling has never made anything to my taste.

I had a similar Omega triple calendar on my bench way back, it turned out nicely in the end. Still, there is too much going on for my taste on these dials.

This dial wasn't too bad, reminds me of the Angelus Chronodato. I have seen a lot worse ways to put day, date, month and chrono functions on a dial. (Do not google "Navitimer", Yoda

)

Anyway, lucky friend!
