: Some 35 years ago Omega saw the future and
: produced this:

: A futuristic tuning fork Chronograph movement
: with a "Buck Rogers" case to
: match, this watch looked like something from
: the far future, and people weren't ready for
: it. It was a clean break from tradition.

: Now some 35 years later, the Speedsonic
: Lobstertail still seems just as FAR
: futuristic as the day it first rolled off
: the production line, and while values have
: soared, even today it's probably too
: futuristic for all but a few...

: Cheers!
