Old Omega stopwatch

10Marton · May 27, 2020

Hello. I received this Omega stopwatch a few years ago. It works and it is in a good condition. But I dont know what that cable is intended for. I was looking for some information on the internet, but could not find anything about it.
So I wonder what is that connector intended for. Can anybody help, please? Or can you tell me any other information about the stopwatch?

Thank you in advance

Just a guess.

The cable plugs into a master electric/electronic timer for recording/transmitting event timing.

Thank you for the quick reply...
I had similar idea, but could not imagine how it could work without any electronics in it.

It doesn't need any.
Pressing the pusher opens/closes a mechanical switch.
Whatever the cable plugs into recognizes that a circuit is made or broken and does all the heavy lifting.
