Anybody what a solid gold 50 year old omega looks like on the inside?
I got a case opener with my watch tool kit. I knew that was trouble
 I was bored and My solid gold Omega was lying around. Turns out its gold through and through, in surprisingly good condition internaly considering its advance age (50 years to be exact)      It does need oiling, and desperately a case cleaning so sending her in next week. I was wearing my Breitling 6.75, it looked very scared

That does look very nice, and I'm glad you're sending "her" in for service! Thanks for sharing - beautiful watch.

Well, "she" needs it
Yeah I gotta say, I am liking this watch much more now that I saw what it looks like in the inside. Remarkable! Also, I stated this was a solid gold Omega. It is of course not, as the case back and lugs are SS. |
