Hi all, I'm interested in this Chronostop Driver date. Just curious your thoughts. IMO, the dial and case looks good, but the crystal seems a little strange. Haven't seen this with a magnifier over the date before. Also no omega engraving though the owner says everything is original. Also, no picts of the movement. Owner saying never been open. Thanks in advance.
I have one of these, without the date, The case has water resistant to 30meters around the edge. The strap is not original either, but There is a NOS one on ebay for 125 quid at the moment. Not sure about the date. The crystal should have an omega logo in the middle.
After a bit more looking about I saw some others that didn t have it on the case, maybe my case is not original, although the advertising blurb says they a re waterproof. I didn t see any with that cyrstal though.
This is the only one other one that I've seen on the web.. http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&38&2usau&1285785449
To be honest if there is only one or two of them about it either means it is non original or extremely rare, If it was the latter then I suppose it would be priced accordingly. I paid about 900 quid for mine, in May of last year,that is 100 % original apart from a NOS strap. They are not the most expensive watches you can buy which means that it might be sensible to find a tip top one, rather than a cheap one. Obviously I don t know what they are asking.
