Omega Seamaster Chronograph – Blue Dial with Calibre 861 (Ref. 145.029, Circa 1970)

The Omega Seamaster Chronograph Ref. 145.029 is a vibrant expression of 1970s design—bold, colorful, and mechanically brilliant. Housing the legendary Calibre 861, this piece merges Omega’s robust chronograph engineering with the daring aesthetics that defined an era of experimentation and innovation in watchmaking.

The Case – Bold Geometry, Unpolished Originality

The stainless steel case, measuring 39 mm, is beautifully proportioned and retains its original unpolished finish, preserving the sharp edges and distinctive tonneau-shaped profile characteristic of early 1970s Omega sports watches. The brushed surfaces and strong lines reflect the brand’s move toward modern, architectural forms during this period.

This “oversize” case wears confidently on the wrist—substantial but perfectly balanced—embodying the sporty sophistication of Omega’s design language of the era.

The Dial – Electric Blue with 1970s Flair

The factory-original blue dial is nothing short of stunning. Its vibrant tone and orange accents deliver instant visual impact, while maintaining the precision and symmetry expected of an Omega chronograph. The orange hour and minute hands contrast beautifully against the dial, while the white chronograph hands and markers ensure excellent legibility.

This playful combination of colors captures the adventurous spirit of the 1970s, when Omega embraced both functionality and expressive design. The dial remains in superb original condition—clean, crisp, and richly saturated.

The Movement – Omega Calibre 861 Chronograph

Inside beats the Omega Calibre 861, one of the most celebrated chronograph movements in Swiss watchmaking history. Introduced in 1968 as the successor to the Calibre 321, it became famous for its reliability, precision, and ease of service—earning its place in both the Speedmaster line and Omega’s professional chronographs.

This manual-wind movement, with its cam-lever chronograph system, delivers smooth operation and robust performance. The example here runs strongly and keeps excellent time, a testament to Omega’s legendary build quality.

The Details – Authentic Components and Vintage Integrity

Every element of this watch reflects its authenticity: the original Omega crown, the original signed plexiglass crystal, and the period-correct dial and hands configuration. The serial number 32,207,039 places production around 1970, perfectly consistent with the design features of this reference.

The watch is paired with a brand-new, handmade black leather strap crafted in Belgium, complementing the sporty character of the piece while offering comfort and sophistication.

Go-Go and Buy this Book
This was the twelfth Simpsons Comics book I've read and, while it's not the best of the dozen, it is still a very funny book and a must for the Simpsons comics connoisseur (you got to love the cover art). Here's what you get: "Rhymes and Misdemeanors": Martin Prince is in love with Lisa and, when his love is unrequited, they both do battle in the form of poetry readings at a nightclub dissing each other. "The Great Springfield Frink-Out": A giant mishap occurs at the Frink labs (actually someone put tin foil in the microwave). This event causes everything to be topsy-turvy in Springfield, for example, Marge is the mayor, Homer is a mobster, Cecil is the celebrity clown, and Bart has ambitions to be as cool as Milhouse. "Tiger Teen": Fun mock mini mag in the style of those old 16 and Tiger Beat teen magazines of our youth. Of course, this one features Homer's barber shop group Be Sharps ("Homer Answers 40 Intimate Questions"-is that a perfect copy of those teen magazines or what?). There are also a few familiar names of 80s pop stars on the cover ("Cory Hart Takes off his Sunglasses-Exclusive photos!") "Burnsie on Board": Mr. Burns tries to live out his boyhood dream of being an Olympic skiing gold medalist by enlisting the help of Bart. "To Live and Diaper in Springfield": To pay for an expensive toilet paper dispenser Homer desires from an extravagant shopping network, Marge starts a daycare center. Her attention to other babies (particularly the one with the single eyebrow) causes Maggie to run away. "Fan-Tasty Island": Mr. Burns needs a rare toxin to get by the Coalition to Reduce Air Pollution. This toxin can only be found inside a wood carving on a remote island. The perfect cover-up is to send a family to find the treasure-the Simpsons, of course. Very funny comic, but the ending is a little far-fetched.

Not Quite Up to Simpsons Comics Standards, but Still Fun
Format: Paperback
Despite the cover, there is no western-related comic in this book (probably a good thing). This comic book is funny (it includes a comic book convention survival guide and a look at Lisa's dream house), but Matt Groening and company really raised the bar with some of their other comic books-hence the four star grade. "Krustonia"-Krusty starts his own utopian nation to avoid paying income taxes. Sounds like something he'd do. "Flanders' Big Score"-Fun-diddly-fun comic where amateur detective Ned Flanders investigates the case of the missing church fund-raiser money. "Let's Get Ready to Bumble"-Homer becomes a professional wrestler. Not as good as the other comics in this book. "Bringing Down Baby"-Short starring Maggie which also includes the infamous baby with the one eyebrow. Only mildly amusing. "Smitherses!"-The nuclear power plant employees are on strike for a 5 cent per year raise. True to form, Mr. Burns decides that the best solution is to clone a staff of devoted sycophants (i.e. Smitherses). When the Smitherses begin to compete for Mr. Burns' attention-Watch out! This is a funny, imaginative comic. "Bore Us the Movie Gruel"-Bart and company watch a 1950s film starring Troy McClure (how old is this guy?) and a mule. The usual sarcastic comments are offered. "Radioactive Homer"-A complicated comic. The gist of it is that Homer believes he is Radioactive Man and joins forces with Leon (insane asylum inmate "Michael Jackson" in the TV episode "Stark Raving Dad") to take down Mr. Burns' "Project Q" (mentioned in Simpsons Comics #1 in the Extravaganza book). Has a very funny ending.
