    Default You guys have me hooked I guess

    Less than two months ago I purchased a Constellation with dual sub dials. It had an issue with the day and date not turning over correctly and folks on here were very helpful in getting it sorted out. Works perfectly now. I like the Constellation with the two claws on both sides and we'd gotten one for my dad a couple years back. I finally picked one up of my own and now less than two moths later I've put it up for sale. In its place, last Friday night I picked up a Seamaster GMT 50th Anniversary (02534.50.00). My first automatic watch in at least 30 years. I really like it.

    I'd been eying the various POs that everyone keeps talking about but the prices are above where I want to be right now. Unlike many folks on here I don't think I'll become a collector per se. I'll probably end up owning a couple or three watches. One everyday, one special occasion, and perhaps a spare for when the main one is away being serviced or some such.

    Anyway, I wanted to say thanks to all that helped with the Constellation and I look forward to continuing to lurk and learn so much more than I have already.

    Yep. That is the watch. I have the other bracelet with the gold Omega inlay on the clasp. I've thought about photos but I am so in awe of the quality of photos I see on here that I would be singularly embarrassed to post the ones I could take. I may try again but the quality on here is so high.

    I really am enjoying the watch but need to have a link or two taken out.

    Thanks.

    OK. Here are some pics. I apologize in advance for them not being as good as some of the great stuff I've seen on here.

    P.S. I'm not sure how to have them show up large like the one above but will be larger if you click on them.
