Today we're working on the biggest flop Omega ever released; the Ranchero. It was intended to profit from the 1957 release of the "three musketeers" - the broad arrow Speedmaster, Railmaster and Seamaster 300. It however failed badly and was shelved after only two years. Which makes Rancheros rare and very collectible nowadays.
Join Stian for a full service and repair of this lovely old watch and a discussion of the Ranchero and its movement, the 267! As always we'll go on a few tangents and among other things we right a horrible wrong about woodpecker sounds.
