Wow, that's pretty cool! Thanks for the great info. I'd be happy to post some pics. Any pointers on picture taking. I have a digital camera and they always seem to come out either over exposed, blurry, or both.
Thanks again!
The KL series were indeed encased in the US.
: Should be a Ross case. Your KL6312 is a 10K
: gold filled case housing a calibre 560
: movement
: KL 6312s were sold in the US between 1965 - 67.
: These 560s with 17 jewel movements were
: imported to save money on Customs
: excise....anything above 17 jewels attracted
: a much higher duty.
: Your model was one of only 3000 pieces that
: were produced for case numbers KL6068,
: KL6292, KL6312 and KL6610. This has been
: confirmed by JLM at Omega Museum. That is,
: 3000 pieces across the entire collection of
: these models.
: It makes your watch quite rare as fewer numbers
: out of the 3000 were devoted to the plain
: auto model, the rest were Seamasters.
: How do I know this? I have one, and also I'm
: about to post an essay on these case numbers
: on my site within the next ten days
: I believe they are a sleeper collectible. Ive
: watched them over the past 12 months on
: on-line auctions and most are seriously
: undervalued.
: Dragoon a friend into providing a pic - you
: have us all interested.
: Cheers
