Re: Omega was at its speak in the past

: Well, so was I, but we one can always hope.
: Seriously, if you follow sports you know
: that a team can be dominant, but eventually
: the pendulum swings. Rolex is in a wonderful

: Omega's present good status will grow, and
: perhaps grow considerably. Time will tell.

: I have a co-axial chronograph presently on
: order with the 3313 movement (based on a
: modified Piguet 1285). I have good hopes for
: this watch (which I will use as relaxed
: casual/semi dress watch). Time will also
: tell about this. Cheers Georges, Geo

The DeVille chrono is a watch that I plan to buy one of these days. I think the addition of the co-axial escapement to the Piguet column wheel chrono movement results in a technologically superior movement, despite the reported problems with the series 33xx movements. Let us know how you like it when you receive it.
