Roll Call !! Watchya wearing ? Pics

Hi Guys,

OK, what have you been wearing this week ?

Here's mine ( & BTW my latest purchase )

A 70's Seamaster Cosmic 2000 diver

- It has a screw down crown.
- Bi-directional Bezel ( non-ratcheting )
- I think it's a 1010 movement ( the crown has 2 positions, & in one of them you can move the date backwards or fowards by rotating the crown )
- I can't get into it, so can't tell you what the Case Ref # is. ( or movement number to date it )
- although the dial looks like new, there is "no lume left". you can't tell the time in the dark !
- the second hand is pure chrome & almost impossible to see in any light
- According to the "japanese seamaster book" it is from 1974 though.
- I have a "few" older Omegas. This is without doubt the most solid bracelet on any of them.

It's quite an amazing spec for a watch that is "only" rated to 60M.. ( remember the speedmaster in rated to 50M & doesn't have a screwdown crown )

Anyway here are a few pics.
