專家說明
This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.
Offered in very good overall condition, the present timepiece is numbered 498 of a limited edition of 999 pieces. The marriage of Daniel's co-axial escapement and the Omega free sprung balance is expected to provide tremendous accuracy over long periods of time with less maintenance required.
George Daniels is the undisputed horological lighthouse of 20th century. Not only is he recognised as a technical master, he was undoubtedly the first of what is today a prominent category in the market: independent watchmakers. Daniels’ legacy is beyond remarkable, and arguably his masterpiece is the co-axial escapement. A truly innovative device, it was invented by Daniels in 1974 and patented in 1980. Daniels sold the patent to Omega in 1993 and was involved in the 6 year design and perfecting process.
