My little 34mm Omega Seamaster Calendar from the late 1950s. Always an enjoyable tactile experience setting the date and time. Initially I didn’t realise you can wind past midnight and then go backwards and forwards again to advance a day at a time. There were some extended sessions trying to get from 3rd to 29th, for example! I’m not someone who can leave his watch set to anything but the exactly correct date and time.

That strap combo is spot on, looks like a gorgeous example too
Classic Omega. Beautiful

It’s in great nick, I got lucky. I have 2 straps, this and a darker one. I have an omega buckle too, may not be the original but it’s a nice addition.

Thanks! I like the box crystal too. Plexiglass which polishes up nicely with some polywatch

The added touch of having the proper buckle really does make the whole package that little bit better, I've always got my eye out for them
I had a few frustrating occasions early in my collecting days, until I learned the midnight trick (before the Internet) 😳 I love look. Enjoy it!
