A wonderful and undervaluated watch ...
Years back, this watch was mine for one week and I returned it to the vendor.
At that time, I was under the incorrect assumption that the caliber 3313 was not up to the Omega standards.
Time passes, learned more and, good news, the watch continued with on the vendor's hands.
Got it, months back, and I sent it to my watchmaker to be verified and I forgot.
One month back, I was at my watchmaker and he asked if I was not getting my watch, that was in perfect state, COSC etc.
I'm wearing it as a work watch and I could not be more happy.
Two quick iPhone shots of my Omega DeVille Coaxial Chronograph Chronometer.
I need to take more pictures and, maybe, to put a brown strap on it (Brown is the new black, IMHO).
Here is the beauty:
Amazing accuracy, wears like a dream.
The Deville case is elegant and cool.
About the movement. I know if one Google "Omega Caliber 3313" will go to receive multiple hits where other persons says bad things about this movement.
I already had several Omega with this movement and the only noticeable point is the outstanding accuracy and smoothness of the pushers.
A perfect chronograph, IMHO.
Cheers,
Nilo

These early co-axial escapement models . . .
. . . are destined to become classics, in my humble opinion. Collectors of the future will be chasing after them much the same way as we hunt down mid-century Omegas. Here's one . . . . . . that I'd want to own, a limited edition of 700 from '04 that was ...
I had the pleasure to handle one ...
In yellow gold from my dear friend Mr. Goldfinger. Beautiful in all senses. Those early CoAxial suffered a bad name because, this is my theory, any radical change on the watch industry is amazing complex (Watchmaker training etc.). But they are the ones m...
