Omega Specialities Co-Axial Master Chronometer Owner Review : Unusual, fascinating and discreet

This very pretty watch was not highlighted at all by OMEGA on its website when it was released in 2022, and they also did not warn that it would only be produced in a limited series (I think 3000 pieces). It is a reissue of a 1939 model. I had an immediate crush on it when I discovered it for the first time: the color of the silver dial, the blued hands, the small seconds at 6 o'clock, the very successful sector dial, the overall proportions, the absence of a date which would have disturbed the balance of the dial... I found it in an Omega boutique, one of the last available in Paris, and the crush was confirmed by handling the object. It is thin, due to its manual winding (but 72 hours of power reserve all the same), small dimensions for my large wrists, with its diameter of 39 mm, but the very narrow bezel leaves a lot of space for the dial. The domed sapphire crystal is the most beautiful effect. Sides of the case in brushed steel, the rest polished. The light brown leather strap contributes to the pleasure of wearing this watch on a daily basis. The back of the case, also in sapphire crystal, allows you to contemplate the very beautiful finishes of this very precise Omega movement. It is a watch that one could forget because it is so light and of contained dimensions, but that one never tires of looking at as the harmony of the sector dial and the blued hands attracts the eye. It is a reissue, and one cannot deny the slightly vintage aspect, claimed, (in particular because of the light silver tint of the dial), but the proportions, the design, the balance, the materials, make it a fascinating watch and very very pleasant to wear. A Longines sector dial looks a little like it, but does not support the comparison for long, in all respects (in my opinion).
