: Hi,
: I've had one since Christmas, and am loving it.
: I think this is one of the first models with a
: double escapement movement, which is giving
: me very good accuracy at the moment. I last
: set it on 2nd Jan and it is currently 4sec
: fast (on the 13th).
: I think this movement will be appearing in more
: new Omegas as updated models are released.
: Based on my experience that's a good
: thing...
: The current constellation still lists old and
: new styles, so both should be available in
: the channel for some time yet. Only the
: double eagle chronometer has the double
: ecapement.
: The quality of the finish is very good. The
: bands on the bracelet are wider than on the
: other constellations. The bezel is wider,
: numerals are larger, and the claws at nine
: and 3 o'clock are more substancial than on
: the previous men's models. The hour markers
: on the face are bolder, and very nicely
: detailed.
: The look is a little more chunky, but very
: clean and modern.
: Regards,
: Alex
Is your watch an automatic or quartz. Im thinking +4sec in 11 days is outstanding! My new Automatic-Constallation is 13 sec slow per week.
