changing my strap
Hey allbeen loving my new elephant and ordered the rubber strap from AP service center.

Black Bay vs PO 8500
I am having a heck of a time trying to decide what my next purchase is going to be. I think I have it narrowed down to a Blue Tudor Black Bay and a Omega Planet Ocean 8500 (both pre-owned). My current collection is as follows:Rolex Sub CBreitling Avenger SeawolfOmega Speedmaster ProBreitling NavitimerOmega Planet Ocean 2500Current grails would be Rolex Exp II 42mm & GMT II BLNR (but those are little out of my price range at the moment)I originally wanted the Black Bay on the fabric strap because I thought it would be different from my other watches. However, I know that I didn't love the snowflake hands at first sight. I think I have somewhat convinced myself to like the Black Bay .

Omega Lume Question
Hey everybody, I have a question about certain Omegas and their lume colors.

Need help identifing a vintage Omega
What I do know is that this watch is from the 60's, has a double chronograph (two chrono hands?). Someone told me it might be model 176.0012.Also, if anyone would know its worth - it would really mean a lot to me. (Works perfectly, with the original bracelet, day/date, etc).Thank you!
