Hello from the airport (again)

Heading for Germany for a few days. Going to visit my Godchild (is that the proper word?).

Hopefully some watch watching, maybe even watch buying, who knows?


Sporting my new Omega at the Tower lounge. Excellent views.

Fly safe Andreas.

With a busy airport like that the ATC's might be asleep.

Thanks Mon!

Yes, there's no-one here! It's us and two other people in the lounge. Checkin was empty. Security took 2 min.

But I'm not complaining. Red wine tastes unusually good at 9:am.

Have a great trip.

...and yes - "godchild" (or godson/goddaughter) is the right word - if it is indeed your godchild.

Did somebody say ATC? Sorry, I was sleeping.

Love the Omega!!! What movement is in that? I've tried the POs on a few times. Very impressed with the fit and finish.

I think that movement is amazing. Personalyy I think it's a better mvt than Rolex uses in the Sub. We will know for sure down the road. If its durable for decades there will be no question about how great it is. Man that's a great looking watch.

Thank you Gunter!

It might be better on the spec sheet.

Both are awesome watches, and I love my subs.
