Just picked up a Black OM1 to compliment my chrome one, and I only paid £25 
I'm grinning like a Cheshire cat, always wanted a black OM1.

The best camera is one that still works!
Congrats ... they are truly beautiful. I'm also currently waiting for a black OM-1 with winder that I bought on eBay a week ago ... should be here any day now!

Cool! I think of mine as my $30 brassy black MP

Even good OM's are very inexpensive these days.
Very sensible to stock up on lenses and bodies, within moderation.

I'm on that list of folks who would happily use a black OM-1.. i gave my OM-2 & 28/3.5 rig to my mom for her birthday, and now have a nice 50/1.4 sitting here with nothing to do.. and i certainly miss the compact-ness of the OM.

Those OM1's are classy looking SLRs. I only have a chrome one... for now

Just being in the right place at the right time, a colleague gave me the nod, knowing I was into OM kit. I made a cheekier offer at first but had to rise to £25
