I've never been a big quartz fan, but I make an exception for the omega caliber 1365. First, it's a two hand, so that eliminates the clunky tick-tock of the quartz second hand. Second it has 9 jewels and is a high quality, repairable movement. Third, it's crownless and the time is set by a recessed pusher at 3oclock. Fourth, each minute is a seperate increment, so at the exact time the minute changes, the minute hand ticks forward one full increment. It's very cool to watch and audible in a quiet room.

I already have a solid gold version on a new hadley roma strap.


A gold plated lugless version with a crosshatched dial on an integrated mesh strap that I picked up as a major bargain that i'm working on getting refurbished


And I just won this 1984 (my birthyear) stainless version with an omega 7-link bracelet. i'll be sure to take plenty of my own pictures when it arrives

Fantastic watches and thanks for the mini lecture on that movement. They are all very nice, but that last one you just acquired is my favorite.

Cleaned and Rob at Aurista Technologies in Claymont, DE applied a fresh layer of 14kt gold.


Bracelet sized and on the wrist


The solid gold one has been sold because I have my eye on the new RADO D-Star 200.
