Playing with a new lens today.
Do like the Z-33. My local AD has one on the shelf and it's quite tempting. My small collection extends to the ubiquitous Bond Seamaster from 2001, which is tucked away, and this pair of Speedmasters. An X-33 Gen2 and a SS Broad Arrow with white face and blue hands.
Just this:
Omega Seamaster Professional Planet Ocean Dial 2 by Peter Whysall, on Flickr
Saw what I think was an interesting fake last night. Chap next to me at the bar had what looked like the same watch, but it was much, much thicker. I had as much of a sneaky peek as I could, and it looked pretty convincing - bezel pip the right size, etc. But by jingo, it was a fatboy. And my (real) one is not exactly Kate Moss.

New shape PO 8500? AFAIR they're quite a lot thicker than the 2500 model. A real shame, I do like the look of the PO, but it's too big for me.

Came across one of my dads old watches whilst helping the parents move house. He has tasked me to "get it sorted out" which meens a correct period strap and good clean up of the dial.
Any ideas on who / where to speak to for the bracelet? I assume the Omega second hand specialist at the end of Burlington Arcade are going to be crazily expensive...?
Also, any idea on value (in terms of letting insurance know, not about to sell my dads first half decent watch!)
