Specialities Olympic 1932 Chrono Chime : 522.53.45.52.04.001

The Omega 522.53.45.52.04.001 from the Specialities collection is a remarkable timepiece that pays homage to the brand's rich history and its involvement in the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Crafted with precision, this watch features a 45mm case made of luxurious Rose Gold, exuding elegance and sophistication. The transparent caseback allows a glimpse into the intricate inner workings of the watch, showcasing its mechanical prowess. One of the standout features of this model is its "Grand Feu" enamel dial, adorned with a 925 Silver guilloché inner bezel and subdials that display OMEGA's unique "exclusive acoustic waves" pattern. This pattern visually represents the soundwaves produced by the watch's chimes, adding a touch of artistry to its design. The dial is adorned with blued hands in 18K Sedna™ Gold, including a red-varnished split seconds hand for enhanced readability. The attention to detail extends to the pushers as well. The chime pusher at 5 o'clock boasts a polished and embossed music note, while the split-seconds pusher at 11 o'clock features a red hybrid ceramic ring that mirrors the look of the split seconds hand. The caseback is beautifully engraved with the words "Official Timekeeper Olympic Games," "Co-Axial Master Chronometer," and the watch's unique number. This timepiece has a brown leather strap, complete with an 18K Sedna™ Gold buckle that adds a touch of luxury to its overall aesthetic. What sets this strap apart is OMEGA's new Quick-Change patented system, allowing for easy strap changes to suit different occasions or preferences. Inside this exceptional watch lies OMEGA's most complicated calibre ever created - the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 1932. This fully integrated chronograph and minute repeater movement seamlessly combines both functions, enabling it to chime the elapsed time accurately. Presented in a special walnut box, which includes a resonance plate made of spruce to enhance the sound of each chime, this timepiece also has an additional leather strap and two leather cords. This versatility allows the wearer to transform it into either a discreet pocket watch or a stopwatch worn around the neck. In summary, the Omega Specialities Olympic 1932 Chrono Chime (ref: 522.53.45.52.04.001) showcases exceptional craftsmanship
