    Mine was Rocco too. I’m pretty sure Nic Green has a lapping machine.

    I'd love to see some pics and hear some experiences of the watch before I plumb for one!

    Would you go original 69 MkII or Co-axial reissue?

    Your thoughts and pics would be appreciated!

    Cheers
    Bought this from Learningtofly a good while ago. One of the nicest examples I've ever seen

    I gave in to temptation and took a bit of a punt on one I found online.

    Few marks on the case, nothing major, the crystal has one largeish scratch visible in certain light. None of that weird black fungus I saw on a few for sale. Plus side it had a movement service at an official omega centre in June and so far appears to be running great.

    Got a bit worried after I took the punt but I'm happy now.
