You may have seen this spectacular Omega timer created for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics . . .
. . . in a limited edition (75 pieces?) that was priced (high five figures) out of reach for all but the most dedicated collectors.
The story as I recall it was that movements originally made for the 1932 Los Angeles Games were found in storage, so Omega decided to case them for the occasion of the 2010 Winter Games. Extremely expensive; I've never seen one since, nor do I know anyone who owns one - except maybe Leo, who owns one of just about every watch Omega ever made.

What a beautiful piece

Impressive collection.
Love the rattrapante, beautiful movement. Thanks for sharing. Vte
