Which Vintage Onega Is This?
This was the Watch given to the players at the 1963 Cotton Bowl, so it would have been on sale in 1962, and the jeweler would have stamped the Cotton Bowl logo on the dial. It's amazing the quality of watch they used to give these kids. Does anybody know the dial and movement? Thanks.

She's gone...
Greetings TRF,I just wanted to let you know that I've sold my Omega Seamaster Professional Quartz yesterday. Since I've bought my chronograph I had to let one go and this one was chosen.Do I regret it? Not really, I know I'll probably get another one someday when I'll get a full time job and more money in the piggy bank. Was it hard? Kind of, I loved that watch dearly but the new one was, for me, a better piece to own given my new or reborn interest in watches. Would I still recommend it to somebody? Absolutely! Omega makes incredible watches and the quartz model is a one of a kind beater as well as a great everyday watch!So there it is, ladies and gentlemen, the end of the road for this one. Let's just remember the good times and keep in mind that we shall meet again someday. Until that day, this is the end, beautiful friend...Thank you for watching!

How are you ringing in the New Year...???
With a little Barrel Strength Bourbon...
