: Cool. You learn something new every day. :)

That's what makes watch collecting, vintage watch shopping and fake detecting so interesting. There is such a diverse history within the OMEGA line that there are so many unusual models like this one to stumble across!

Personally, I really like the Omega-matic (also available from other brands under names like Kinetic and AutoQuartz) technology and would love to see OMEGA use it more. But their one test model for this was an offbeat design that I think gave them misleading feedback into the consumer acceptance of this technology. Would rather have seen this Omega-matic movemetn offerred in a watch identical to a regular model -- not in an offbeat design.
