Yes, it's the Omega Speedmaster Broad Arrow Olympic Edition, reference 3557.50. It's still available at some of the A.D.s. I recently saw one at Jaya 33. Comes with automatic caliber 3303, non-coaxial. I changed the original bracelet to an after market leather strap.

i'm loving it!

i will rotate 16610LV & 5001-09 depand on my outfit.  ;D

Post by: Scott C. on February 10, 2010, 08:26:21 PM

Stan, it's look real nice on your wrist ;) really, the size just rightly fit  :thumbsup:

You make me want to wear mine tomorrow ;D

Btw, i notice that the buckle on your Port is fixed on the 12 o'clock but mine is on 6...  IWC buckle usually have it on 6 but as long as you wear it well, that's OK ;) Maybe you can try reverse it next time when you change your strap (i am thinking to get a brown strap after CNY) next time ;)


Again, congrate and thank for the dinner ;p

Cheers!
Scott

GONG HEI FATT CHOY everyone!!!

Nice to see all the beautiful watches here....

for CNY, nothing to boasts, this just came in right before CNY.

the Lum-Tec M8 Tungsten Carbide CF dial: I change the strap to RED CF for the festive mood. Looking very good.

Love the super heavy micro-polished case, the CF dial and my own strap. Paiseh, no lume shots yet..
