Advise needed for Omega 33.3 Chrono
By: CL : July 22nd, 2019-10:21
Dear Omega collectors and experts... As I was looking for a Vacheron Vintage Chronograph, I chanced upon a Omega ref 2077 with 33.3 movement. Vintage Vacheron are plagued with restored dials and authentic issues, My question is does the ref 2077 also have...
Thank you...

how important is 33.3 movement compared to the Vacheron's? Also, any tell sign or concern about legitimate dial? How's the one I post? Lastly, can you share with me here or on pm the pricing of such piece? Thank yo very much
Ahhhh I see...

I keep hearing 33.3 but never link them together.
That to me....

is uber important. I want something that has an interesting story to share.

This is the inner case image. ...
Just located an identical example of a 2077/3 . . .

. . . with a shock protected movement dating to 1950, so the one you're looking at is probably a-ok. I'll do a bit more research later this afternoon, but for now, rest easy. Art
You're good to go, CL. Of course, there's no guarantee . . .
By: Dr No : July 22nd, 2019-17:13
. . . that movement was issued in the case unless Omega confirms it. But it all hangs together as far as I can tell. Price will be well into the five-figure range in either dollars, Euros, or pounds sterling. Good luck! And kindly share more pics with us ...

May I ask what vintage chronograph do you like? between 13ZN and 33.3 movement, which would you prefer?
Dear Nicolas and Art... How about this Longines?
By: CL : July 23rd, 2019-07:12
I am thinking of either this Rose Gold Longines or the Omega I posted above. This Longines is 10k more expensive than the Omega and is 4k more than the price of a restored Vacheron 4178 Les Collectionuure series. Is it way too expensive? Sorry for not sta...
This is kinda like a Jimmy Page . . .

. . . vs Keith Richards decision, CL. Yeah, Jimmy was the greatest player ever in terms of pure talent, but Keith lives to play. And has kept it up with his original band for decades longer. At even money, I'd be swayed by the Omega because it is more wea...
True, true . . .

. . . but then he'd be losing out on the essence of a 13ZN. If there's a proposition nearly every vintage aficionado agrees on, it's the ineffable beauty of the 13ZN. I'll concede the superiority of Longines vis à vis Omega when it comes to movement appre...
I think you mean...
By: CL : July 23rd, 2019-13:37
you would be swayed by Longines at even money but at a substantial discount, it will be Omega hands down. Thanks
You got it! . . .
By: Dr No : July 23rd, 2019-13:48
. . . nothing beats ten g's of play money to go watch hunting. Especially when you're hunting . . . . . . an Omega chronometer ;-) . . . ...
Let me know if you need . . .

. . . a guide. Ask Kari or Abel - they'll tell you every successful hunt has a guide.
Aye, aye, sir! . . .
