Hello fellow members,
Would like to share the dial of a Megaquartz. I have the stainless steel Omega Megaquartz 2.4Mhz for some years but didn't aware of the texture dial of it until recently I took it our for change of battery. It's beautifully.

Hope you like it.

 

You have a very strange black waffle dial mega quartz
The minute track and the hour track are the same length
There are 2 variations of this dial see my photos

 

Hi TsoloT,
Thank you for your observations and comments. I have checked my other Megaquartz blue dust dial and f8192 gold dial. Their minute and hour tracks pattern are same as my ss Megaquartz posted earlier.



Same as

 

Gold dial of f8192


Minute/hour track "same length" pattern, is the same of ss Megaquartz posted earlier

 

Yes I have 2 mega quartz which are the same see the photos...but the black waffle has variations

I have a blue waffle which is very very rare I think it’s the only one made...I might be wrong...and there is also a brown waffle and of course the Blue pupitre

But yours is the first I have seen with the same size chapter markers
Can you post this as a new thread and let’s ask the forum

 

Hello other senior OF members,
Perhaps, you can give us your insight in respect of the minute/hour track variations.

p.s. @Tom Dick being expert in Omega electronic watches can give your input. Thanks in advance.

 

Edit: Hi, TsoloT, my message just crossed with yours. A new thread will be a good idea.
Cheers,

 

BTW, TsoloT, nice ss Megaquartz watches !!
Thank you.

Edit: .... and an 18K YG one as well!

 

I know Tom very well and have shown him the black variations he’s not seen all of them I think will text him this morning

 

Marine Chrono slightly different again

 

Morning gang

Some amazing watches here. Well, indeed right there are quite a few variations of the megaqaurtz F2.4mhz dials, primarily because the dials where not manufactured by the same company.

Stuart is quite right that there is a brown variant but it is in fact an aged dial as opposed to being made brown.

I’ve seen and owned three other variants, there is a silver dial with short marker variant that was mine which is now owned by sts, I’ve also owned a gloss black version myself.

They made so few of these watches that it’s surprising how many different dials they did but in the last two years I’ve turned up three different dials

 

Hi Tom,
Thank you for your immediate response and valuable commentary.
There is so much to learn in this Forum. I am glad that I joined after years of reading (only).

Of course, thanks to TsoloT for your insight.
Cheers,

Hi Tom do you have photos perchance

 

Is this one considered mega quartz?

 

And an other Megaquartz

 

My humble megaquartz.

 

The blue pupitre, I believe, mentioned earlier.

 

This is the first Omega watch I bought. It is one of my favourites.

 

Nope, it's a 1343 Quartz Chronometer for the US Market from 1979 if memory serves.

On the subject of Megaquartz 2.4mhz watches some of you might be interested in what I had put together a few (well 6+ now) years ago : http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.php?191564-Omega-2-4Mhz-Megaquartz-Collected-Pictures-and-Facts - KeithT had provided some extra info on the "waffle" versions.

I don't remember ever seeing a "silver" dial but that thread has a very rare (never seen another one) 18k gold colored dial.
