Omega

Being a litlle obsessive (if you believe that, you'll believe anything!)...anyway, moving on , I thought that it'd be interesting to measure the 859's timekeeping over a week. The result is little short of astonishing. I carefully set it against my radio ...  

…of all the watches I have owned, Omega always most accurate. ...  

my Speedmaster Broad Arrow is also very accurate. Regards Antony

What else would you expect from an OCDer? ) Kind regards Antony

that we are equally 'enthusiastic', and that mine isn't an oddity,,,just 'biz as usual' for a CK859. Kind regards Antony

...Grossmann Hamatic movement. Absolutely sublime and a form of art!

Not to compare with the MG since it’s got other mechanical qualities we all love.

it just happened that I was alternating with it, certainly not comparing. Regards Antony

Fully wound Apr 16th 10:10am...and today April 19, 12:33pm it is still running accurately, not to the seconds because that was not my test but it is running for 74hrs and still keeping time....not sure when it will stop.

that is very interesting and shows the depth of quality in the design. An outstanding watch. Enjoy! Regards Antony

Great results i read. Manual wound. I guess the results will be better, plus 1 and than no plus and minus. It will be at point 0 when the movement had run in. Same as a very high accuracy quartz watch.

Oh, wait, this post is about the Omega's accuracy. Let me switch gears here. Yes, the Omega is wonderful. Oddly, my Rolex runs about 0.5 seconds slow a day! And perhaps odd to some people, although not a huge surprise to me, the mass brands like Rolex and... 

even more distracted after looking at the back

Maybe yours, but certainly not mine. A mid-wit! ) Kind regards Antony

Thank you Antony again!

The MG Back is too beautiful

they have the resources to really understand regulation in its totality. Not that VC or PP are small, just that maybe it is not so critical for them. Regards Antony

Can’t wait!

Did I tell you how much I like the Huracan? Oh, wait, I already did. Sorry for repeating myself!

Out of my class, I drive a boring old man's Lexus LC

That new LC looks really impressive. Especially the rear end! What a handsome looking car! CH Gruyere is the one with the Lamborghini - well had a Lamborghini.

beautifully finished, and quite fast enough for an old man in UK! You don't see many about. Kind regards Antony

I haven't had the pleasure of driving one yet. But I can imagine it's lovely. I definitely like the rear design!

but driving it is a sublime experience. I have never owned a supercar but have had a stream of Maseratis, until the recent ones (yuck!), they proved very reliable and were charismatic. The Gran Turismo and QP5 were beautiful. In the early days nobody knew... 

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, the LC is a very rare car. I see more Maseratis (I'm not a fan of the modern ones myself) than Lexus LCs. However, we've also become a place where we're now all adopting electric cars! I'm also quite sensitive to road n... 

The LC definitely had considerable road noise, just like the Maserati. My tyre dealer recommended changing them for a specific Michelin. The transformation was nothing short of incredible. Kind regards Antony

I need to find an extra quiet tire for my Tesla. Since the tire noise is so obvious when there's no engine noise to cover it up!

I'm very familiar with all the tires that fit on my vehicle. Unfortunately, I'm not enamored with my choices. For the US Market, we haven't gotten the Michelin ePrimacy and Michel Pilot Sport EV available in my vehicle's size. I'm especially keen on tryin... 

The hesitation cost me, they went up a whole bunch and good ones got scarce shortly thereafter. The Huracán is a fun buggy.

My favorite sports car!

Regards Antony

When you are ready I'd enjoy seeing your pics. Regards Antony

. . . and if my experience with the 60th anniversary Rail is any guide, the timing performance you're experiencing now will still be in store five years from now. Btw, my nearly six ty year old Genève chronometer . . . . . . offers similar timing performa...  

that it would have been much harder to achieve back then,,,kudos to them. Kind regards Antony

Puts many more expensive watches to shame and a triumph for Omega and the co axial escapement!

I hope that you and yours are well. Kind regards Antony

and I trust you and yours are well too.

Hope you’re doing well. I’m not surprised as I’m experiencing similar great results with my new Speedmaster Chronoscope. Omega does seem to have it’s act together.

it does seem that they are a cut above everyone else. I hope that you are coming to London sometime soon, a nice meal beckons! Kind regards Antony

I hope Omega make a model with a more conventional / traditional / classic dial and I'm in! I have always been after my first George Daniels escapement watch, it could be the one! Best, E.

after this huge success more designs will follow. Regards Antony
