: quartz. It only has 3 lines, is this a
: chronograph? It has the timezone feature.

You have the QUARTZ version of this watch. Many Omega models are also available with ChronoMETER certified automatic (mechanical) watch movements--but those are different from what you have.

Also, you are confusing terms here. A chronoGRAPH is watch with stopwatch features--which yours certainly does not have.

: Also, can I use it for swimming, I read on
: your site that static pressure might affect
: the watch. I was planning to use it while
: flyfishing, should I not do this??As all
