| If you said an Omega Speedmaster 125 you're right! I was the only bidder on this 125-year anniversary watch from Omega released in 1973. This thing is a giant of its day at 42x52mm and very thick. It's an auto/chrono chronometer. I'll give you a watch review after I get it. Another grail bites the dust! | |

| OMG! The UPS guy just delivered it. I've been waiting by the window practically ALL DAY! But now the wife and son are home so I can't start taking pics till tomorrow. Drat! I gotta say, it looks better in person than in the photos. I was afraid it would be too long at 52mm for my <7" wrist, but it's not. It's perfect! Pics hopefully tomorrow. The seller shipped it UPS on President's Day for overnight delivery! Awesome. Generic photos: | |

Eric, I didn't think we were speaking! j/k I saw that one yesterday. The dial looks like it may have age spots on it (first photo). That would kill the deal for me. | |
