Beautiful watch and at a perfect size too with very nice dimensions. I have seen this at a dealers in real life and it really is quite exquisite. The only issue I have is that one of the two registers should have been constant seconds rather than having an minute and hour counters!!!

Great idea, but beware that its a slippery slope from here onwards...especially if you wife likes watches!!! We have 4 such combos (two sets of Omega Seamasters, one set of Longines and one set of seikos)!!! regards Farooq

Lovely!!! Does anyone know why they chose not to have a screwdown crown to enhance waterproofing of the case? The modern versions don't have them either and neither do the chronos which make them less practical for actual water use. regards Farooq

Ok, thanks for clarifying. My mistake!!! Beautiful watch!!! Farooq

Thank you everyone!!! I had asked Omega not to fiddle about with the dial even though the printing is barely visible. They did change the hands and the crystal, and returned the original to me. cicindela: why do you say that this is not a piepan? Maybe not apparent from the picture due to the heseli
