Basel Shmasel....
Lots of great stuff out of Basel, but there’s lots of great stuff already in all of our collections!

Let’s not forget what we have on our wrist right now!

In celebration of Basel World 1989:



16710 GMT Master II BLRO. I was blissfully unaware of Basel World back then and was sporting an Omega Seamaster.
