Hi Eric,
Isn't it a GREAT brochure !
I agree with the points you've picked up on. The Bi-metalic speedmaster professionals are great ! & they weren't THAT expensive then. You rarely see these in the Bay. I'd hate to think what one would cost now ( although, since few people know of therie existance the prices might stay reasonable, since most people would assume they are fakes)
The ... MK IV ?? This is the second German brochure that I have showing "that" model as a MK IV. I haven't scanned the other brochure in. It's a large booklet & would be a few hours work :-( but here's the relevant page.
What also "dawned on me" as I posted/worked on the brochure is :- Chuck has a black dialed, two tone cased Teutonic on his Hooked on Teutonics page. I have never seen this model in a catalogue or any kind of Omega literature. Is it possible that it is a "normal" two tone watch that has had a black dial fitted ?
I'll ask the Maestro himself.
Unfortunately the strap material / bracelet numbers aren't mentioned anywhere in the brochure.
Can you belive the two-tone 861 Teutonic cost MORE than the MK V ! I wish I could go back in time !
I had a real bummer of a day yesterday at work. finding the E-mail/scans (from Richard Grimmel ) in my in-box really turned it around :-)
All the Best
Steve
