I got one of my grails!

Not what most people would consider a grail, but I've been searching for one of these silver dialed, all steel, 2nd generation Manhattan, automatic, Omega Constellations for a year.  I know there are some overpriced ones out there, but I finally found one for a reasonable price.  I love the horizontal brushing and blued baton hands.  It is wonderfully thin at less than 8mm.  I'm still in the honeymoon phase, but I couldn't be happier and wanted to share!

Very nice! Congratulations!

Can't go wrong with a Connie. I own one and it's one of my favorites. Nice job!

·

That is a fantastic grail!

·

Congratulation!

I‘m becoming more and more a fan of the Constellations.

I love that Omega stay tru to the original designe.

Only you can deside what a grail is for you and if you want my opinion i think this is a great one!

Now that's what I would consider being on the quest for a true grail: being driven by an idiosyncratic love and passion for a piece that not everyone sees the way you see it. Great watch!

Looks like a grail to me. Congrats!

Great looking Connie. Congrats🥳

Love the watch.  That is the "George" of the Omega line and a fine watch (maybe the Railmaster is the "Ringo").  Let's talk about the photo:

Leather ✔

Marble ✔

Wood✔

Hirsute wrist ✔

Contrasting gray and brown (anyone can do black and gray) ✔

You were right to exclude coffee and tobacco.  The jacket and wood already covered the brown spectrum (if a bit on the light side).

I would have liked to see some green, either a succulent or a sprig of mint.  Green would make the gray pop.  B plus.

That's awesome.  I'm not much of a photographer, but I do check the photo against a couple back drops to see what looks best to me.  I'll have to get a succulent to improve my composition.

This is an ongoing joke of mine.  We have some very good photographers on here.  And then there is me.

Edit:  take a look at @bevelwerks posts.  I have really helped him improve his photography.

Congrats! What a unique one!
