As some of you may recall, last month was the annual Original Miami Beach Antique Show (OMBAS). It’s a big time watch expo, mostly very high end watches like Rolex and Pateks, but you see a lot of Omegas as well. Luckily I live in Miami so I go there e…

However, these endlinks were clearly made to match the 1069 as they have the same link design running down the center.
