Omega Museum Collection Club
I've joined with a 1938 Pilot.Does anyone else have a watch from the Omega Museum Collection ?

Spoke with my favorite dealer on the phone and . . .
he had some interesting info for me.As has been reported, Omega is increasing the MSRP of the Speedmaster Professional line of watches. This will be in the range of $500-$600 to cover the cost of the new box and goodies:Always thinking ahead, my dealer has greatly increased his inventory of Speedy Pros in their various flavors. These he will make available at the current MSRP but when they are gone, there will be no more.Don't know about you but I wear the watch and not the box. No way I am going to spend that kind of money on packaging. I've even put a couple of my special Omega boxes (one mahogany and one leather) on the market. They were just taking up space in the closet.He also mentioned that he still had a few of the Gen I, cal 2500 Planet Oceans in stock. I am now awaiting arrival of my BNIB, 42mm, cal. 2500D, Planet Ocean. (It may become a safe queen.)

Hesalite vs. sapphire crystal, help!
I'm adding a speedy to my humble Rolex collection. 3750.50 is a legend and you can clean the scratches off the crystal. But I hear the sapphire crystal is more practical?!
