Re: Omega 2500 movement - concerns
In Response To: Re: Omega 2500 movement - concerns ()

Is there any way to tell which calibre a watch has? I have the Bond GMT Co-Axial, and on the back, all I see is 2628. There are no letter designations.

: Omega with all it's calibres look to improve
: what is already a good watch. Which can be
: seen in the 1120 watch upgrades, and the
: 1150 has been upgrade several times the 2500
: is now on it's 4th version the speed I think
: is only half the problem it's also a
: production problem and material problem you
: are right I think also it would be better in
: a slow train but I've also seen the
: prototype of a Rolex watch with the Daniels
: Escapement which was also a fast train
: (Daniels took it to Rolex before Omega but
: Rolex being Rolex could not see past they
: nose).

: I think we will probably see a couple more
: versions as the difference between producing
: 1 watch to 100,000 plus is very different

: Richard
: West Repairs
