Cal.911, 1971’ s Box & Paper,Tag

Very Rare Watch,Like New Condition.

The flightmaster chronograph was made specifically to be used by pilots, and today is one of the most desirable and collectable vintage Omegas. Besides the usual chrono features found on other Omegas (such as the speedmaster) this watch has an extra hour hand, the blue hand, for GMT or another time zone. The watch is a real eye grabber with it’s four dials, six hands, 3 crowns and two pushers. The upper crown on the left side of the watch is used to set the GMT hand while the lower one rotates the inner bezel which is under the mineral glass and is used to measure elapsed time. The model or reference number of this watch is 145.036 and the movement is a high quality Omega cal 911.The only difference in these two watches is that the sub dial at 9′oclock on the 910 has a day/night indicator instead of the constant seconds on the 911.

Remarks :

Watch has just been returned from OMEGA U.S.A authorized service center for a complete overhaul which cost approx. USD$837 with original receipt and 2 year factory Guarantee. All function runs well and keeps good time.

Note : This Omega Chrono remain highly collectable as for it's multi-function high grade movement (3-Reg. Chrono, GMT & Inner rotating bezel) as well as the high quality design. This is certainly an eye catching and outstanding watch.

喜歡70’s錶款的朋友應該對於OMEGA的錶不陌生吧，老實說：我很喜歡從40’s~ 70’ s的錶款，早期的錶講究機芯的精密度，然而到了50’s年之後所有的瑞士錶款及美國錶款都強調機芯的精準度及耐久度，60’s之後除了上述的優點外，更針對其整體的防水性做更一步的加強，應該說70’s年代後是完整成熟的產品年代，這時造型成為瑞士錶展的重頭戲碼；造型必須要講求其功能實用性，諸如那時後的運動錶品牌如TAG HEUER、OMEGA、LONGINES、UNIVERSAL、IWC、ROLEX…ect，都有很多值得賞玩的作品，這就是另人懷念的70’s年代。

這次要說到這只錶flightmaster，一直以來我都買進賣出不少只(都是錶一只，了不起配有保證書而已)，而最令小弟驚訝的是，這只錶的前任擁有收藏者，將這只錶的當時所有配件及內、外錶盒都保存的很好，應該可以說是OMEGA博物館收藏品項等級的錶款了，當我打開錶盒的時候，才又發現它的價格標及吊牌，竟然也還安靜的在盒內，這下我可真是開心的不知如何是好啊！定下心好好的端倪保證書及使用說明書、產品卡後，發現錶廠以前對於產品的用心，和現行當代的做法真的差很多，你們如果仔細的看，現行品因講求環保，所以大部份的錶盒不到三年就外觀開始爛掉了；以前對於高檔的產品，如有天文台的錶款還配有一張天文台檢測單(不過60’s年代後來都是證明單了，尤其勞力士它們還只附有一個紅圓牌就帶過了說)，所以我真的很喜歡以前的整組配備錶款啊！

這是一只大碗公的計時碼錶，在OMEGA的產品線中，有Speedmaster、Seamaster、Flightmaster共同使用該外型，但是我覺得這樣的外型很討喜，因為很多人很難不注意你手上的這只錶，厚實的錶殼裝著上天及下海的大錶，光想像就令人振奮不已啊！這只flightmaster是屬於後期裝置Cal.911(Basic Cal.861)的機芯，它少前期九點鐘位置的日夜指示窗，取而代之的後期換為恆動小秒針窗，其他的功能一樣不少如GMT指示、計時碼錶、可調式計時旋轉圈都在這只錶款上面呈現。接下來我還想找一只可深潛的Seamaster 120M的計時大碗公，它得產量很少，多年前有過一只但賣掉後，一直沒能看到自己滿意的錶，當然取得的價格上也翻了好幾倍，去年我曾問過一日本的同行，他那只要賣給我合台幣快二十來萬(沒盒單，錶如新品很漂亮喔！)但是我卻步了，思考了幾天再問他，想不到被美國那邊的人買走了，呵..懂貨的人還真是不少啊！加油囉！
