New Omega fan

Hey all,

My interest in watches began a little over 20 years ago when I bought a Swiss Army (now Victorinox) officer's field watch for my 26th birthday. I wore it every day until about 5 years ago when my father gave me an Eterna-powered Porsche 911 watch. This watch is too sentimental for me to wear so I went to see what other watches were out there. There were a lot 😀 Today my collection has grown to a Citizen diver, Casio Edifice, an elegant cheapo Skagen, a Zodiac V-WOLF, a Timex Ironman (perfect for the gym!), and a Lum-Tec (which I'm looking to sell as it's too big for me).

So what brings me to the Omega forums? I've been looking for a more upscale watch but one that keeps its dimensions in check. Today's trend is to wear a dinner plate on one's wrist but it's not something I'm into it. Having searched for "thin diver watches" I stumbled upon a certain Omega model that caught my eye. Much research and reading later, I found a very clean specimen at a great price. It's on the way to me now.

See if you can guess what it is 😉



Cheers!

Is it a Rouchefoucauld World Complication?

It clearly says it's an lanoissefroP retsamaeS agemO 🤦

Let’s see, what omega has a helium scape valve at the 10 o’clock position. Hmmm

So close! You're off by one digit. Easy mistake since they're identical from the underside. It's a 2264.50.

Thank you. Yeah prices are already insane on these. The truly nice ones are deep in to $2k territory and that's bonkers for a quartz. I think I was quite lucky to snag this one for a significant discount. Hopefully its condition lives up to the pics.
