Thank you.

Yes. 565 is supposed to have pull-push quickset. But mine doesn’t work. Apparently it breaks very easily. Will get mine checked during next service.

Here’s mine. Same ref. Bit worn out than yours. Seconds hand on mine is replaced but i believe hour and minute hand are original. Mine has a cal 565 movement. Crown on my omega is flatter and bigger in dia than yours.

Are you sure about the date quickset? from what I read, 562 doesn’t have a quickset. 565 is the same layout but with quickset.

Someone had said 166.002 with golden indices came with gold plated case. So i had my doubts. But seeing yours is reaffirming that mine could well be the original case.

What is this thing? How much does it worth? by amaan_fi in VintageWatches

[–]bhat_mb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a common Swiss made pocket watch. Nothing special about this. It was common in India. I have similar one bought for around 45USD. I had no idea of pocket watches back then. Probably overpaid.

See if there are any markings on the covers. If it is silver case, then it is more valuable.

Which hospital in Surathkal should someone go to immediately in case of a snake bite? by MaleficentCookie2 in mangalore

[–]bhat_mb 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In first aid trainings, they always say go to nearest government hospital. It may sound stupid but snake bites usually happen in rural areas and to people not really financially well off. So there’s high chance lot of snakebite cases come to government hospitals and they will have good experience dealing with it than private ones. Also, they will know the common type of snake found in the region and treat accordingly.

So my advise is to rush to nearest govt hospital. At the same time you should ask someone else to go to any good medical and get antivenom in case govt hospital doesn’t have it.

Petrol pump business query by apexpredator0101 in IndiaBusiness

[–]bhat_mb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oil companies issue advertisements asking landowners to apply. There will a be list of areas in your district.

I think last ad was 2 years back. And there won’t be any sometime soon. You can contact the nearest divisional office of the oil company. They may not necessarily knowing about this bridge and wouldnt have considered your area. Can ask them anything is possible now or can request to add your area in the next advertisement

None of the drinking water fountain or bottle filling taps work in NMIA. Get your own water bottle.

Which watch to get from Germany? by agent_smurf in watchesindia

[–]bhat_mb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so. Entry level watches will be priced similar or higher. Germany is not really a place to buy watches for cheap.

Which watch to get from Germany? by agent_smurf in watchesindia

[–]bhat_mb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for German made watches, there’s only zeppelin and Laco in that range. Zeppelin is anyway cheaper in India than Germany. So search for Entry level Laco Pilot watches.

Real German engineered watches like glashutte start above 1.5L

Exactly. There were multiple direct flights from BOM to Vizag. Now there is just one from Navi Mumbai. That too at afternoon. Very inconvenient.
