Omega Chronoscope
Hello all, I acquired this Omega Chronoscope a month ago. At that time, I wasn't sure whether to purchase it or not. It took me 1 week to decide to buy it. Am glad that I did. Good or bad, the watch is quite heavy due to the size and thickness of the case...
One of the scarcest Omega chronographs . . .
. . . of recent times. Can't recollect if anyone in our forum owned one; I don't believe Nilo did, and he collected current production exclusively. Here's an equally uncommon steel Chronoscope . . . [photo credit: Dr No, 2009] . . . rattrapante. Congrats ...
Nilo indeed had two…
A GMT version of the one posted as well as the very different version shown here: www.watchprosite.com / And then there was a Finnish member (kicking myself for forgetting his name) who briefly had one before giving it to his nephew I believe.
I’m also a happy owner of a steel version dear Art. It’s story was told a few years ago…
… when I received it and I’m repeating below in this same thread. Cheers! Abel
Gorgeous watch!
Another reference I’ve never seen until seeing your beautiful example! What is the function of the numerals in the window near the top of the dial? Here is my much simpler Chronoscope. ...
Not the kind of watch you use to time sprints on the track
I think it should be used for more important timing events, like how long you ponder whether to sign a contact for a new home, or how many minutes you delay when purchasing a large block of stocks in a crazy market, or the countdown to responding to a job...

That really is a stunning looking Omega De Ville Co-Axial Chronoscope.
It really looks special and a serious hunk of gold too plus the case back is nice and different as well. Marc
Wow - that’s a premiere as far as I remember 👌🏻👏🏻🙌🏻

Wow!!
This is beautiful!! I didn’t know it existed Now I have something new to track down 😂
Hello WatchCrazy! Big congrats on your new Chronoscope!
You got a gorgeous gold version which I didn’t know existed. I own an standard steel version which I love so much as it arrived to my collection a few years ago as a gift from a very dear friend who regrettably passed away some time after this present. So...
Not surprised I'd forgotten about Nilo's . . .
. . . but a more than a little embarrassed forgetting about yours, Abel - my bad! 🙂↕️
Please don’t feel embarrassed dear Art! It would be surprising that …
… you could remember all watches owned by different members of our community… including some of them no longer participating here like Nilo, (a nice and fine collector and great photographer) among others. It’s easy to understand you could miss my watch o...
