Hi Jwest

Welcome on board first. Enjoy your stay.
The watch in question shares the same movement than the Omega 1948 centenary reedition
http://www.omegawatches.com/index.php?id=319&pos=1&no_cache=1
I am pretty sure the caliber is based on the eta 2892-a2 but with small seconds at 6 and chronometer certification. No it is a new model.There was in the past (ca 1995)a deville with subsecond at 6 and with chronometer certification but it was a handwound one with the cal 651 based on the eta peseux 7001.

regards

georges
