1961 Omega Seamaster automatic. Brand new official Omega alligator strap with the original 1961 clasp attached.

As some of you might know, I’m a watch collector. That said, I don’t focus on high end watches as there are far better options at lower price points. I also collect vintage watches, which both of my grail watches are. The first is a 1971 Omega Seamaster. I was born in 1971 so it’s obviously very, very special.
