    The Antipodean thread

    I agree. Its a great thing to see and unmistakeable as a warrior challenge. I don't see the Kiwi Curling Team carrying it off.

    Wearing a tie in a company that does NOT embrace ties?

    Bolo tie... If the boss cut your Bolo tie, you could make a new one out of his blue network lead. Wouldn't be as stylish, but you would have his attention;) T

    O/T camera help needed

    I just took a pic of a watch I had serviced and it doesn't look anywhere near as good as it does in real life. In fact it looks like it was stolen from the wrist of a drunk dead in the gutter:o . It looks a lot better than that. How do I get my camera (its only a happy snap 8MP Lumix...

    Wearing a tie in a company that does NOT embrace ties?

    I'm not disagreeing with you, its a bit more subtle. Its also a matter of human nature. At senior levels, personal appearance is a side issue. There is a collective corporate consciousness. The dominant alpha's of the tribe do not trust what they don't understand. Will he take a fall for...

    any other "unworthy" lurkers?

    Worthy/Unworthy? If you enjoy vintage stuff then how you choose to express that is your own concern. The lounge is a pretty broad church with room for all. Don't worry about living up to 'hardcore vintage' types. Many love it, some come and go. Enjoy yourself. T (Steps down from...

    MOON your Moonies (The First Watch on the Moon!) Let's see them!

    Its all down to marketing and brand positioning. I'm not sure what movement the Daytona or Cosmo uses, but these days don't pretty much most others use a variation of the Valjoux chrono movement?

    MOON your Moonies (The First Watch on the Moon!) Let's see them!

    No, lets see theirs! Forgive the poor quality. I'm not sure if these are the ones actually worn, or are commeratives supplied by Omega. They appear to have the mission patch inscribed on the dial - probably commemaratives. If anyone can shed some light on the matter I'd be...

    MOON your Moonies (The First Watch on the Moon!) Let's see them!

    On the way in to the old Mission Control Room in Houston, there is a large display case showing all (?) Omega's worn as part of the Apollo program. I'm at work, I'l see if I can find a pic at home and post. T
