Hello dear Art! Great Theme you choose for this new edition of WS!

Regret I will be able to answer tomorrow as I’m without WiFi service since three days ago and the provider service promised to visit on Saturday to fix the problem.
4G doesn’t allow me to post pictures now. Only text… I hope.
Anyway… I remember viewing the film “Lawrence of Arabia” in 1962 or 63 (I was 14 or 15 years old then) and was so greatly impressed with T.E. Lawrence that I got both a biography and the Seven Pilars of Wisdom books and read it.
The reading took me to look for more information (no Google or internet of course was even dreamed then) and found that famous Argentine writer and intellectual lady Victoria Ocampo who had personally met Lawrence and interviewed him and lectured about him in the following months after the film release.
Of course I assisted to the lectures to learn more about my newfound hero. And interesting fact was to learn that Lawrence had lost the original manuscript of his monumental writing “Seven Pillars…” and rewrote it completely thanks to his outstanding memory.
Let me say I was surprised to view your Great White Omega on your wrist today as I didn’t remember you owned it. Superb watch. White dials look fabulous on this Seamaster and the GMT complication is very interesting and practical to have.
Have you owned it since some time?
I will return tomorrow with my post and pictures answering your theme!!
Have a nice weekend and thank you so much for your hosting dear Art!
