Can somebody enlightened me, why you want to track the destination of an re issued omega ? And share experiences about backwind clicks and forward winding resistance? Have you ever owned vintage handwinding Omegas ? Everything seems quite normal to me... What did I miss ? Kind regards. Achim
Was just purchased from AD and had them ship it to me and it must have come off while it was in the box. I tried it on there before I bought it and had them ship it to me. It was intact when I tried it on. I thought the buckle was machined as one piece. It looks like Omega did some kind of pressure snap deal on it instead.
Exactly the same for me!
Click sound anticlockwise, no sound clockwise and the more i wind the stiffer it gets. I also get a slight "back rotation" everytime i give a winding turn.
I never felt a stop when winding it, and i made a lot of turns though. A bit afraid of pushing more ^^
I just started a test to see how long the watch lasts
I have two modern Omegas with manual winding, the CK859 and a 3861 Speedmaster. The winding feel couldn't be more different between them. When I first handled the CK859, it felt very strange to me, as I was used to the 3861.
Would any CK 859 re-issue owners be interested in posting their approximate edition number and location just to see where these watches end up? For instance, mine is #24x and is in California.
Just thought it might be interesting to see how many there are and where they go. Cheers!
