What do you guys think of the museum line?
Greetings, I do not usually see any post or reviews regarding the museum line. I would like to hear your opinions and reviews of the omega watches in the museum line especially the white gold chronograph. Thanks, Francis
I like that line
very very much especially the first 5 pieces and sincerely hope to own Petrograd watch one day I hope that our friend G will chime in with his first hand/wrist experience ... Cheers Damjan
I think most of them were faithful to the original versions . . .
. . . and there's at least one . . . . . . that would fit in my collection. I believe Graham had a Centenary Museum issue before "The Big Bang", and hopefully, he'll share his insights on this model. The only one that provokes ambivalence is the Renverse,...
Whats the renverse?
I love the time only omegas with the manual movement showing at the back. I think its called the 30 something movement or reference number. Francis
The Renverse . . .
. . . is the Museum piece I should like . . . [image originally posted by Jeff] . . . because I'm partial to shaped cases, simple three handed movements with sub-seconds, and arrowhead and dagger markers, which are all present in this design. Contrary to ...
Thanks!
It seems they mostly use precious metals on the museum line. I would have like to see the last three chronographs in stainless steel. Francis
I like...
Hi Francis, I like some of them for their aesthetics but the prices are pretty stiff - so I prefer to find the "originals" if possible. I own the Cosmic only as it is nearly impossible to find a black dialed pink gold vintage Cosmic with original unrestor...
I own two
The cosmic and the centenary. They both look fabulous on the wrist. I would have also gone for the racend chronograph but had no love for the movement - otherwise a fabulous looking piece.
Yup Thats the hurdle.
The prices are kinda high, if it had the vintage movement inside it would be a different story. I cant get myself to get 2nd hand watches. Almost got myself a vintage flightmaster but i like my watches to have complete papers and boxes and also original p...
I like the concept of the line. And I'd love to own a few pieces from it.
Particularly the rectangular triple date moonphase and the chronographs. Ruckdee
What chronographs do you like?
There are many chronographs in the museum line, which one are you leaning to? I saw 3 chronographs in the omega boutique. They all looked stunning. 2 rose golds and 1 white gold. I liked the triple counter rose gold and the military type white gold chrono...
It is a good introduction to Omega rich patrimony.
One watch I was on to buy several years ago was the Pilot watch from 1938. And I will buy it, when I get the original, first, the CK 2042. They are pretty faith to the original, from what I think I know. Best, Nicolas.
hi francis, i owned the first 5 as i was seduced by the ltd edition syndrome
the first one from 2001, the 1938 pilots watch was a very nice piece and very faithful to the original. it was also very affordable. their only mistake was making 4938 of them making them not very limited. the 2nd, the 1951 Square cased Cosmic in rose gol...
You know ...
.. i'm still in love with the Petrograd my friend ... I'll check my bank account and see if there's 50 quid somewhere Bim...

if there is buy your wife a nice dinner you know the saying 'everything is for sale.....at a price'. however many of mine arent at any price (petrograd not included) just to make you drool here's another pic G...
I think people like the first five.
I dont know if my first omega should be a museum line watch. I will try to look around first and keep on trying on the wrist before I decide. I might just be interested because of the limited edition and unique design cases and dials. Thanks for the insig...
very nice line...
I own one RACEND TIMER and is georgeous! the caliber 3201 runs incredible precise!! The watch look so great on my wrist. Best
