| Just got this small beauty from Japan auctions coming from Osaka store. Midsized at 38m, it just fit my small 6.5 inch wrist! phew! haha! Only fault cosmetically is a very tiny puncture at the 9 spot in the bezel insert, but no prob in accepting that. Polished it up to restore the sheen .... Made in later 1988/89 or so... | |

| Congratz on the new/old Omega Thian. I'd love to own an Omega one day. Of course not exactly sure if "one day" is anywhere in the near future! |

| Congratulations Thian ! That is a beautiful watch sir ! It looks brand new by the way. I have to say this watch works on all levels. The bezel, dial, and markers couldn'tbe any better imho. Even the size looks great, and it doesseem bigger than 38mm from here ! I think what's niceabout getting older watches, is that they have someunique characteristics like size, simplicity, and mostimportantly charm ! ENJOY !!!!____________________________________ | |

| 'charm'...nice word to describe the older vintage watches! Just spied the same model but in the larger 40/42mm men size! Bidding ends on Saturday so will see what it tops out at just before closing and might go for it! haha! | |

Thanks, I think that word fits just right too ! The 40/42mm might be EXTRA charming by the way ! Good luck if you decide to go for that one as well sir ! ____________________________________ | |
