| . . . a lot to like about it. At $850 it falls right into that " so many choices area". . . . ( none of which I can afford right now . . . ) |

They were a British clock and watch maker for like 180 years that went belly up around 1980. Their products were left at the Swiss company unclaimed and were recently cleaned, oiled, and cased with COSC certification. They run $800 or so. Someone is offering me one for the Cyma. |

C'mon, Randy, if you really wanted it... It's nice looking, yet another black dial/ white numeral. There are just so many similar ones, and many in the same price range. I'm getting bored with watches. |

. . . that takes me to " theyr'e all pink . . . ." We aren't bored with that ARE WE??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Same for 30 years, really happy there, thanks. But just like that, to not become bored, perhaps with watches, I should concentrate on the movements. If you ever get bored of your Omega Speedy, send it over to CT and I will take good care of it ____________________________________ M A R K

| I'll consider that, Mark. Maybe if we move back that way in a year... I like my small stable very much, it just seems so many "new ones" aren't, so much. |

| I like the looks of it a lot....most likely would never buy it though, lot of other ones on the list ahead of it at the price. May be a nice trade if you will wear it more. ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

| I like that there seem to be two bezels ! Looks pretty neat imho ! Also like the numbers, which seem very easy to read. Oh and how about that movement ?! ..It's easy on the eyes, AND has 30 Jewels ! Seems like a NICE watch from these pictures and specs Doc ! ____________________________________ | |

| I like it.A 2892-a2 cosc running the small seconds hand off the minute hand.It goes from 21 to 27 jewels in that configuration. No idea where the 3 extra jewels are,but its a cosc thats adjusted even to temperature.If 38mm is a good size for you,then its worth the trade. |
