Omega Chronometer 30T2RG
Last year I visited a vintage watches shop in Paris. I wore a chronograph Minerva. Inside the shop, there was an Omega watch. The similarity between the two dials caught my eye.
The watch was in remarkable condition. Never polished, dial bearing the marks of his age (1944) .
It should be revised but I wanted to preserve its integrity. I sent it to Brienne. On this movement, it is very easy to replace specific parts by standard parts from a 30T movement. I was certain that Omega's watchmaker would take a great care of this rare watch.
These pictures were taken before the revision.
It's running now inside chronometric specifications. And I'm a happy Omega fan !
