[ricardopalamino]

I just picked up this beauty that has been on my wish list for a while .

It's an Omega Speedmaster Triple Date Calendar # 3523.80 . automatic Cal. 1151 ....39mm 'w'o the crown.

that is a perfect size and a beautiful watch. that is a gorgeous blue dial. you got a winner, RP. good for you.

an acquaintance has a seamaster with the blue ripple dial. he better keep his eye on his wrist around me. i'm not ashamed to say i covet that watch. :hot:

i'm still working on my first omega.

Christmas to yourself Louis? Your Speedmaster is a nice looking watch, and unless I'm mistaken it is ETA 7751 based movement inside. I suggest that you keep it on a watch winder as these movements are a real pain in the bum when you have to set all the functions!

[ricardopalamino]

Ho Ho Ho , Merry Christmas....I'll have to go to watch college to set this one .....or I could send it to you to set for me .

[Geo]

or I could send it to you to set for me .

Please don't, I have a similar type of beastie that when on my wrist only tells the time 'cause I can't be **BLEEP**d setting all the functions. I used to when I first got it at first.

Got any spare Omegas for a poor old soul who only has a couple?

:D

[ramrod]

you'll tire of that blue master soon enough. better send it along to me. :D

Maybe I'll sell it to Will ,...or trade it for that snazzy Le Coultre he has...

Truth be known , I saw Marks video ,

Service Omega Speedmaster 1151 Triple Date reconfiguration. Valjoux 7750. Watch repair tutorials...... and I wanted one ever since . It's been on my Ebay watch list since then .   Beware , don't watch Marks videos .

drool...

Maybe Santa sold his house and is bringing me one !!!!???? 

:)

But at this point, and within the realm of possibility, a new oiler would be nice too.

Oh Happy Day...New Years Eve and the postman delivered my Triple date .  Man , I love it . 

Aloha Geo ....I was kinda intimidated when you mentioned setting the functions , but I find it user friendly to set ..... A lot easier than some solar powered , satellite or radio controlled , Perpetual calendar , etc. etc , watches I have . I do have to go to watch college for them . :geek: ...

 

This Baby is nice...

 

 

 

 

The postman also brought me this vintage Swiss Lucien Piccard Seashark....watch and case only . I had bought a genuine LP watchband previously , ...in case I won the watch . The pics of the watch on ebay were dark and obscure and not much of a description which kept other bidders away , so I picked it up at a bargin compared to the other Seasharks offered .

 

 

 

 

 

[ricardopalamino]

Opps , ...I set the wrong date in my haste and anticipation to put it on my wrist.  Gee , I kinda like getting excited about something .

[ramrod]

i noticed the date right off. i like how they did the date hand. i like that better than a window. i have an Orvis quartz with one of those date hands. 

yup, it's a beauty. the only thing i think omega could have done a better job on is the tachy ring. i don't know what it needs - just something. but i'd own it. yup.

 

very nice LP. there's a brand that i've never even considered. and i haven't seen very many.

[ricardopalamino]

Nov. 25 I posted 2 other Lucien Picarrd watches , if you want to take a look...

The Omega is just perfect. What a beautiful watch to own and wear. You must be very proud.

I can't say I'm proud to finally get one , ...But I'm a happy puppy .  I almost put on another watch this morning ,....but I didn't .  I've been wearing it 3 days now , a record only beat by my underwear...... just kidding .

[ricardopalamino]

I just acquired this tuning fork Omega Constellation.....to accompany my Bulova Accutrons....
