Photo Report: The Original Miami Beach Antique Show 2022 (Part 2)
by James Fisk
We no longer participate in the Original Miami Beach Antique Show, but here are some photos of the event from 2022!
The Original Miami Beach Antique Show (OMBAS) is a horological pilgrimage for those interested in vintage watches and other antiques including jewelry, furniture, handbags, art, and home décor. OMBAS hosts 600+ vendors from over 30 countries with a wide variety of expertise. American and international collectors and dealers attend the annual event, which generally takes place in January or February each year. Eric Wind stated that it is the best show open to the public for looking at and purchasing important vintage and pre-owned watches in North or South America. The enthusiasm among attendees and vendors was extremely evident over the course of the weekend, especially as it was the first “Beach Show” since 2020 due to the pandemic.
For those who were unable to attend, we wanted to highlight some of our favorite timepieces that we saw in the wild at our booth. We hope to see both new and familiar faces in 2023!
