Finally, Vindication!!!!!!! "new" timepiece
Around 9 years ago I had my house burglarized. As one could think, 2 of my favorite watches were stolen. One, a vintage rolex datejust on strap and the other a contemporary Omega Constellation automatic. I always wanted to replace them and as I was walking through the French Quarter yesterday, my favorite watch shop had a magnificent fusion of old and new. A never worn 1961 Omega constellation automatic on strap. Box Papers and all. I finally feel vindication! What a pristine specimen. Im scared to wear it! Happy mothers day all.

Since your previous watch was stolen from your house when you weren't home, I would think you'd be afraid to NOT wear it!
