Hi Guys, Can i check if the previous model of ROO 44mm RG has been continued already. I find the dials for previous model more readable than the new model. Thanks for reply.

My dinner with the 'Lunar Dust'...
I had a rare opportunity to dine with a true celebrity this past weekend, and thought I would share my amazing experience...I was a very fortunate guest of Omega for the PGA championship in Louisville Kentucky. Unless you've been living under a rock the past few years, you should all know that Omega is the Official time keeper of the PGA, and Omega Ambassador Rory Mcilroy is not only two-time winner of this tournament, but is the top ranked golfer in the World...So naturally, Omega was in a celebratory mood this weekend.However, the experience that was most impressive for me took place far away from any putting green or tee box...By whatever serendipitous happenstance, I found myself sitting across from Raynald Aeschlimann - (Vice-president of Omega)...He was, as the thread title would suggest, wearing an OMEGA lunar Dust...I believe I may infact be a Jedi master, because within minutes, this watch was on my wrist, and remained there until after the post dinner cocktails...DSC00496.jp

Americas Cup!
One more race to go! Nice to see Omega as one of the sponsors!

Where to find an old style "beads of rice" goldplate bracelet for 1960s Seamaster DV?
A family member who knows I have taken an interest in 1960s Omega Seamaster watches has given me his Seamaster De Ville (I think it is a 166.0020). Presently it has an after market bracelet.I would like to try to find as good of condition as possible OEM bracelet for it. Anyone have any idea where I might be able to find a good condition 1037 (the 9 row) beads of rice bracelet (gold plated)?I have looked at a few that are described as very good condition on eBay and most look really terrible. As a result I am hoping to find a source for this other than taking my chances on eBay.
