Most of the weekend it was the new Navi 01 LE at the Hong Kong Rugby 7s.
However anyone who knows a bit about the HK 7s would agree that the "Emergency" would have been more much more appropriate :roll:

But than I could not help it when this evening I came across this at the Omega Boutique at Hong Kong Airport which I thought was as close as I'm gonna get to a clean "007" serial number :bow:
Mrs. Wessa will kill me :(

Wow what a pick up Wes!!! Well done sir. Let us know if she changes the locks...and if not, how you were able to get away with this one. :-)

Ok ... a couple things here. First I am looking high and low for vintage Superoceans, no luck yet


They're being offered once in awhile but there's always a lot of interest in them so prepare to pay top $$ , price range from 2k (some people are very lucky to find one for that price) to 3.5K euro or more

WillyB wrote:
second...what are the chrono looking pushers on this watch for?


for the Chrono ! :D
the central hand is really a very big minute counter to keep track of dive times, not a large second hand as you may expect as this model really doesnt have a seconds hand


WillyB wrote:
Awesome by the way


thanks , I like it a lot ! and with its 42mm bezel its great but looks bigger


@Dracha: yep, some find them for 2k (even freshly serviced by Breitling Germany for 1k :oops: ), others snap up V72 806s or 765AVIs for a song ... it is a game of patience, lots of luck and a bit of knowledge.

@WillyB: there are a number of vintage SuperOcean, 2005s are rare, 2105 are rarer and then are the 1004 and the 807 that either require quite deep pockets or a lot of luck to find.

one additional info about the 2005 "chrono function", the eye above 6 shows either black like in Drachas wrist shot when inactive, yellow when running or a small yellow dot when stopped but not reset.
