I believe I tracked these down previously

If you're willing to use translation tools and an internet seller with a global presence like amazon.co.jp, I believe you can find them easily, if not from the publisher directly.

World Photo Press website is www.monomaga.net

Translated, the category is Clock. It's below World Watches, which appears to be a periodical.  Each has a WPP number & code that can be used to match with the vendor of your choice.

Information for the Speedmaster book (2008 Japanese version of  A Time Capsule as far as I can tell.)

Translated title: 20th century storage Omega Speedmaster World Magazine No.600
Code: 819806
ISBN :978-4-8465-2600-9
www.monomaga.net


Information for the Omega Seamaster book

This one doesn't have an ISBN number listed for some reason, but those sites that suggest related purchases had it pop up when I located the 2008 Speedmaster book.


Translated title (sorry): Sima omega-Star story WARUDOMUKKU 447
Code: 819651
No ISBN listed
www.monomaga.net

Hope this helps.

P.S. I'm new here, and even URL fragments are being turned into renamed links - they work in preview, but I can't fiddle with it to stop it.   An alternate entry point comes up as a link in Google if you search for "monomagazine".

"Omega Saga", by Marco Richon, the Bible of the Omega fan. You may order it from Omega.ch . It is available in French only. But really the most thorough reference on everything Omega, and the best reference on the hoistory of the firm. Then there is "The ...

they are difficult to read, but compared to all the others the pictures and reference numbers are unbeatable. unfortunately my house is still in state of building chaos so finding them to give you ref's is impossible. pm me in month. Graham
