TwoTone Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Omega De Ville Rattrapante Co-Axial Omega will present at Baselworld 2005 the new De Ville Co-Axial Rattrapante, with a revolutionary design inside and out. The 41mm case comes in polished or brushed stainless steel with a matching polished or brushed stainless-steel bezel. The silver or ruthenium dial has applied Omega symbol and name, facetted hour markers, silver totalisers with applied Roman numerals for the chronograph function and a truncated sector date window at 11 o'clock, as well as an unusual small-seconds counter with two sectors. The time is read off by luminous, facetted and diamond-polished Alpha hour and minute hands and a double-tipped small seconds hand. The split-seconds pusher has a varnished red circle that recalls the red zone at the tip of the split-seconds hand. Movement is the Omega caliber 3612 with split-seconds chronograph complication. This COSC-certified automatic movement is fitted with the unique Omega Co-Axial Escapement, has a power reserve of 52 hours and a double column-wheel mechanism. Its luxury finish includes blued-steel screws and two blued-steel column wheels, as well as a domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides. It is water resistant to 100 metres and it is available with a black alligator leather strap. Courtesy Timezone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 This is still my favourite Omega watch, Its just a shame the real one has been dogged with movement problems to the extent that I couldn't dare buy one at this stage. It would be great to see a decent rep, it would never be accurate given the rattrapante and sub dial layout, but it should be possible to do something pretty convincing.
