Hi,

The cosmic is a nice choice. One of the most wearable vintage watch on the market. Make sure you got it serviced and pressure tested as soon as you get is. Before the service please make sure you ask the watchmaker to check the rotor and the bridge if the color and the serials are matching (if there is any). The problem with possible mono-case Omegas is the movement is not easily accessible. therefore when it`s sold often there is no picture of the movement. So these type of cases are sometimes targets of fakers. Well maybe not faker but lets call them `watch priests` as they are making marriages. What I mean under marriage is that they take parts from different movements of the same caliber number and build a perfectly working but not original movement. This however if the marriage is done by a watchmaker hope fully it will not affect the working, but nevertheless you should know if that's the case since you bought this watch probably for your collection having and conserving the value is paramount.

Since the case is one piece of metal water find it`s way in at the crown or around the crystal. If you get it pressure tested (making it water proof) this will increase the service period of the watch too.

Now the IWC. IT`S A BEAUTY!!!

Can you make a picture sowing 10:10 on the watch so the hands are not overlapping? Super nice readability. Nice choice but you can`t go wrong with an IWC anyway.

Great advice

I will certainly get it checked out and tested.

I will try to get pics of IWC at 10:10

Thanks
