Vintage Omega F300 Chronometer + Papers
DescriptionA very nice, rare OMEGA f300hz Electronic Chronometer, complete with original papers. This watch was originally purchased from Mappin & Webb, Vincent Street, Glasgow on 5 May 1976.
It has a stainless steel case and bracelet.
A battery powers the f300 Hz tuning fork movement in the Omega. A miniature transductor sets a resonator vibrating at 300 oscillations per second (300 Hz). These oscillations are maintained by an electronic circuit and divided into units of time. This produces a lovely humming sound that can be heard. The watch has a sweep centre seconds hand.
Tuning fork movements are relatively rare as they were quickly replaced by quartz.
DimensionsThe dial measures approximately 32mm diameter.
