: Just a fantastic collection!

I'll second that, you have a really cool collection there. I imagine that they're real conversation starters, probably much more so than the Autavias, Carreras, Speedmasters, etc that collectors pay so much for. And speaking of Speedmasters... your quartz one is certainly the one I would be happiest to wear.

Of course the potential problem is the movements, and that scares me away from any of these digi (or analog-digi) models. I have a case for an Omega Chrono-Quartz which is probably a genuine prototype (either from Omega or a case supplier), but sourcing a movement is nigh on impossible. There seem to be hundreds of damaged examples out there and everyone is searching for the elusive movements.
