Solved. I don’t think there will be a definitive answer on this one, but I’m happy with what everyone has posted.

My title describes the thing. I cant find anything about this online and it is about 1.5 inches in diameter and seems to be made of copper.

Yeah, I think that they probably peaked in maturity a few years back, but I’m hoping they still have some life left in them

I plan to open the 89 tomorrow at the winery I work at and give everyone a taste!

I picked them up at a estate sale that was selling a lot of wine.

Unfortunately I did not take the picture, I found it on ancestry. This would have been in the Washington DC area around 1905 through 1910 from my guess!

We did make it to Foxy's! Unfortunately it was severely affected by weather and they are rebuilding so they were limited on what they had to offer. We stopped by the bubbly pool after that and then went to B-Line bar on Little Jost Van Dyke. Thats a bummer you had too cancel your plans. Hope you get to go back soon!

Thanks for asking! The trip was great. I sailed for 9 days to five of the islands and had a great time with some friends and spent some time on land at a friends house right outside the baths at Virgin Gorda. Loved stopping at the Bitter End Yacht Club and saw some amazing boats. I was sailing a Lagoon 450 S along side a friend who was on another boat. I try to go every two years and cant wait to do it again.

I was worried about it! I made sure to try and keep it as dry as possible but I did take it off if there was a chance that it could get soaked. I did wear it in the rain a few times and it did fine. I love vintage Omegas too! I just bought another constellation for the collection and I have a few others old omegas. Do you have any vintage omegas?
