And it’s the Chronoscope which has saved that on the bezel, and simply returned all the opposite ones to the dial in an intersecting expanse of small time-interval measuring instruments, therefore the identify. By way of the motion, this watch is not any extra or no easier than every other chronograph however for a couple of issues. With the intention to preserve this design from changing into totally unwieldy, Omega utilized a handbook winding motion – the Co-Axial caliber 9908. The handbook nature permits for the thickness to be minimized. It additionally permits for a enjoyable little quirk. Whereas this watch seems to be a twin register chrono, it’s truly a 3 register in apply. At three o’clock there are, in actual fact, two fingers working the chronograph minutes and hours. I feel this watch could be solely unusable with a 3rd subdial, so hats off to Omega for that.
