: Are there 17 jewels or 25? According to the "79 Most Commonly Used
: Calibers", the Valjoux 7750/51 has 17 jewels, but Jeff Huber quoted
: his Omega pamphlet as saying the Pro Chrono has 25 jewels. Did Omega
: modify the 7750 and add 8 more jewels?
25 is what I've heard officially.
That document also oddly reports the ETA 2892A2 as having a 42-hour power reserve - yet the Omega 1120 based on it is always described as having a 44-hour reserve. Not sure how Omega adds another 2 hours in their modifications...
