Hey everyone,

I did some ad work for Omega in the late 90's and ended up with some nice collectibles. I was invited to Bienne Switzerland by Omega to attend the yearly watch fair and spend so time at the factory. While I was there I was given some very nice books that they told me were only available from Omega, all the books are published in Switzerland.

I also have some items which were only given to the buyers at the watch fair, buyer came from around the world to attend the fair. This was a special time for Omega, they were introducing the X-33 Speedmaster the next space watch.

I worked for an engineering company that supported maned space flight at the Johnson Space Center in Houston Texas. I did a lot of work for astronaut Gene Cernan last man on the Moon, Gene was a spokes person for Omega then and still is today.  I also have some really nice space items also.

If anyone is interested please let me know. I am taking photos of these items and I will post them here everyone to see. Below is a book list.
