Alright, let’s talk about this watch I recently messed around with – the CopyOMEGA Ω Co-Axial Master Chronometer Chronograph 45.5mm, original order, you know, the real deal.
First off, I got my hands on this piece. It’s big, 45.5mm, and it’s got some weight to it. Feels solid, you know? Not like those flimsy things that break if you look at them wrong. This one, you can tell it’s built to last.
So, I started playing around with the chronograph, you know, the stopwatch function. It’s got this column wheel thingy and a Co-Axial escapement. Sounds fancy, right? Basically, it’s supposed to make the chronograph smoother and more accurate. And let me tell you, it worked like a charm.
- I tested it out multiple times, starting and stopping it, resetting it.
- The buttons have a nice click to them, very satisfying.
- No weird jumps or stutters, just smooth operation.
Now, this watch is also a “Master Chronometer.” That means it’s been tested by METAS, some Swiss lab that checks if watches are super accurate and can handle magnetic fields. Apparently, this one can withstand up to 15,000 gauss. I didn’t have any magnets that strong lying around, but I took their word for it. This thing is built to take a beating. I mean the silicon balance-spring and 2 barrels mounted in series.
I wore it for a day. It’s comfortable, despite its size. The strap is leather, and the clasp is secure, it fastened easily. The grey color is pretty versatile, goes with most things. It uses a calibre 3861 movement. It’s self-winding, so I didn’t have to bother with manual winding.
Conclusion of this watch
In the end, I was pretty impressed with this OMEGA. It’s a well-made, accurate, and reliable watch. It’s not just a pretty face; it’s got the guts to back it up. If you’re looking for a high-end chronograph that can handle anything you throw at it, this might be the one. The manual-winding chronograph also has this column wheel and Co-Axial escapement. I’m not too sure what the difference is, but it also works smoothly.
