Hi
@Mathemagician
Hey ! That's a Retro Omega SM Ref 105.001 Tachymeter manual winding Column-Wheel based Cal 321 Lemania, one of the greatest most admired movement designs like ever! The 1st Speedy on the moon worn by Buzz Aldrin was equipped with a Cal 321 !
Check this Out ! Did you know at one time Omega & Patek Phillipe were using the same movements? Omega calls it Cal 321 , Patek Phillipe calls it Cal 2872 but it's basically a bloody 2310 Lemania movement !
Unbelievable but Patek Phillippe was actually using Lemania based movements for over 50 years until 2009 ! That's when they switch to their new inhouse movements
Lots of stuff missing there on the minute track .Once it's fully serviced it'll look like this
It looks a little like Tom Cruise's watch in the HG Wells inspired Steven Spielberg's movie 2005 War of the Worlds ...!!!
In that scene just before the Martians on Tripods attack on the city of LA , all electrical devices in the city STOP working including Tom Cruise's Omega Vintage SM chrono
Duuhh....Really ? Hello Mr Spielberg ?.... That's Not suppose to happen to a Cal 321 Lemania 2310 movement !! The winding mechanical will keep on Ticking long after the Martians are dead ! It has nothing to do with Martian Laser Zapping every Tom, Dick , Harry & Jane in LA .Anyway Tom was wearing a different SM vintage Chrono but still it looks SO DAMN COOL !!

Calibre 321
Fake or Frankenstein ?
Vintage watches have serial numbers engraved on the inside of the watch.It will tell you the Cal & production year. Never buy if Omega HQ cannot confirm or match the serial numbers!
