Where have I been?
Several have noticed my absence from the forum and asked where I have been.Well, I have been around albeit rather infrequently. A year or so ago, we bought a home with our oldest daughter which has turned into a major renovation project that my wife calls the money pit.We are still living in a construction zone but the move has allowed me to return to my original hobby, ham radio. Financing the acquisition of the equipment necessary to get back on the air has required the liquidation of most of my watch collection. I once said that my 300 Master Coaxial could easily be my one and only and that has almost become a reality. it and my Speamaster are my last two Omegas and the Speamaster is about to go on the block.For those hams in the group, as soon as my antennae go up with warmer weather, look for me on the HF bands. In the meantime, try connecting to K4YK on D-star.But of course, I'll be at the Spring ATL GTG on the last Saturday in April.

How do I take this part off my Vintage Speedy
How can I safely remove the part to see the serial number of my speedmaster? [/URL]

Incoming - this time for the wifey
She looked at many watches from Breguet, Vacheron, etc., but always kept looking at the pictures of this - the new 4947R. Pulled the trigger on it this weekend - believe me it looks even better than the pictures. She is super excited and now my 5146 is going to have a companion. Real pics to follow soon.

Any love for 658?
Really sweet watch.Anyone had a close encounter they could share?Thanks in advance

The DOME!
I couldn't find a list of all models with the DOME! I know of only two models with the dome - 233 and 311. Are there more? (please excuse the rookie question)
