[@tacfoley4443]

A few years ago, when I had my 1971 Flightmaster serviced here in UK, they replaced ALL the colour-coded pushers with plain pushers, telling me that was the way that Omega had authorised them to do it. They ignored my protests. It cost me over three hundred pounds to replace them - having found some new/old stock in Australia on the usual on-line market.

[@Vintwatches]

Just send it to me next time 😉

[@frankmertens6430]

Nice work done. I have an old Seiko at home but don’t work. Is it expensive to make it work again. I bought it on a second hands site. It’s not that i am emotionally attached to it but i find it a very cool looking watch.

One question - the sunburst. You already seemed to do it on the lapping wheel, then did it again on the belt? Can you please explain this? Kind regards, Jim.

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks Jim! I pre grinded the dimensions to flat surfaces on the lapping machine and used the belt grinder only for the finish of the sunburst grinding pattern. Best regards from Germany Daniel -Vintwatches-

We're n❤ot worthy....We're not worthy.... Amazing, beautiful work, i am just captivated in steps you take to make this watch look beautiful again. How would I inquire about having an Omega Flightmaster case restored to its original splendor? Also, is it possible to recreate the laser etching of the DC8 on the caseback?

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you for your comment! Just send me a Mail for your Flightmaster, my website is in english as well. Sure it is possible to relaser the engravings of a Caseback, but I’m not an expert for such a work.

Is the omega Jedi for sale?

[@Vintwatches]

No, a customer watch.

[@Kurthoolio]

Nicely done, it's not a Jedi though. Reference 145.0024 was nicknamed Jedi by Chuck Maddox. The mix-up with the 176.005 was simply caused by an error in an auction catalogue.

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you for your comment 🙏 I know that the 145.0024 was nicked Jedi originaly, but generally everybody in the entire world will mean the 176.005 when talk about an Omega Jedi.

[@Vintwatches]

??

[@sjoerdbastiaan]

I know what you mean I think. Because not the original finish… I find that a bit of a peculiar thing. Because some collectors decide that they rather have a blotched and scratched original finish than a beautifully refinished case. I know what I would prefer on my wrist.. and I think it’s better and more of a hommage to those beautiful watches to wear them, as to stash them away in some drawer as part of a collection. Just my honest opinion 😊

[@ANDREASDEUTSCH]

OK, I would like to buy that watches for 50%of its value!

[@Kimbledotcom]

I thought you was going to dive into the movement with the many many many pieces, screws, gears, clutch/s, more screws, 1000 jewels, ect et al. That movement was given to me once when I was a beginning watch engineer (never made the cut) it made me cry! How that movement is not called a ‘complication’ is beyond me. Great restoration & video though.

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you for your comment! Actually I do think, that the Cal. 1040 is quite easy to service 😬 Never had any problems with it.
