Eagle eyes
Achim, you have eagle eyes and you pointed the scratch on the "E". Unfortunately, not on the crystal.
I understand that you kept the Chronometer with bigger size. They are gorgeous watches. The only one I saw was not for sell. I would be very pleased to find one in good condition one day.
Concerning the Centenary, the 2 olive branches on the back is a very nice hidden tattoo. I share your view that these watches are still underrated.
Thank you for your comments!
A 30t2rg chronometre, this time in steel
Last February, when Bill asked us about our favorite color, I said that I liked the warm tone of gold. It was there: http://omega.watchprosite.com/show-forumpost/fi-677/pi-5169453/ti-772658/s--10/ That is one of the main reason why my Omega chronometers w...
My gosh! This is absolutely lovely!
I've never seen this dial color but then again, I know not much. Are the dial and hands all original? What's the case diameter less then crown? Regardless, this is absolutely lovely! Congrats!
33 mm
The case diameter is 33mm excluding the crown. That is the small version. Concerning the hands and dial, I believe they are all original. And thank you for your nice words!
Marv,this is official, I am in love!
A beauty! Look at this understated but promising design, the patina of the dial, these long legs, errrrr, lugs, these very elegant hands! And a Chronometer, as a cherry on an already delicious cake. I can't wait to see more pics of this watch, or better, ...
Chronometer is a fascinating theme for watch collectors
... but is is also a never ending subject! For sure a Zenith 135 would be welcomed, and a Peseux 260, and why not a Longines, and ... ;) I hope you will soon see it in the flew. Thank you for your fervor!
How cannot we be enthusiast!
They are such marvels. Another risky theme would be the " school watches "... For those of us who love the Peseux, this s a family to consider. Best of luck, my friend. Nicolas
Nice and...
Hi Marv, nice and original watch - love it... from the proportions I guess it is the small size ref 2364 - am I right? enjoy erich
You know your classics!
Indeed, the reference engraved on the back is 2364-4. Good guess!
Yes, that is absolutely lovely
I often dream of coming across this watch in a junk shop and getting it for peanuts!! Some dream!! Cheers Andrew
Why wait for...
Hi Andrew, I am in doubt if your dream may come true one day... Why don´t you buy one for a reasonable price - they are not so expensive, especially the 33 mm examples... I think you could afford one :-) kind regards erich
My philosophy: replace one dream with another
Expensive is a relative term and these 33mm watches are considered too small by many. I do think they remain "reasonable". At the end, the real dream starts with the watch on the wrist! I am sure you will find yours. It is also a question of patience and ...
very nice, marv ! what happened to the E from OMEGA?...
is it a scratch on the crystal that plays tricks? have not seen your shade of discolouration before.was it a silver tone dial? the very outer part looks like some silver streaks? i had 3 chronometers 30 RG; one YG in the small size like yours, one in pink...

Thank you for your nice comment
I sympathize with your quest and hope you will find it!
Smiling from ear . . .
. . . to ear! What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes today! Congratulations, Marv - that's a gorgeous specimen. Most pleased, Art
If you knew my shoes...
I am now the one that smile from ear to ear: If you knew my shoes...it is not the nicest place to be!!! ;) Thank you for your pleasing words!
What a beauty! :)
Congrats to a great catch, Marv! :) Your collection of chronometre's are stunning! Best Blomman
Marv , simply a classic example !
Hi Marv A simple Omega steel manual chronometre is something special. As opposed to a gold 30T2g , when someone was going to buy a "gold watch" someone might say I want the best... and the salesmen would say get gold Omega right here. I would like to meet...
