The movement is its original Omega caliber 1342 quartz mechanism with quick-setting hour for easy changing of the time zone and date.
But what is most striking about the watch is its incredible condition! It is in true expertly restored condition. If is fully Omega and presents as a 9.7 out of 10 and is very clean even in the "engine bay" hidden underneath the back.
The dial is a perfect refinishing and the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.
Note that the dial came out looking just a little brighter blue under our lights than it does in person. It is more subdued and is more of a deep royal blue.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
A gorgeously restored three and a half decade old Omega that presents on the wrist almost like new!
