Gorgeous! I'm in love with the Memomatic! They are hands-down the most technically impressive alarm movements ever made. For those who are unaware: they are impressive for 2 main reasons:

1- They are FULLY automatic. Unlike other automatics, the Omega 980 has a SINGLE mainspring barrel shared between the movement and the alarm mechanism, so the automatic rotor charges the alarm as well! Each time the alarm goes off, it uses 1 rotation of the barrel or so (so ~1/6th of the full wind), then gets recharged like normal.

2- This is the only one that has TWO 'hands' for setting the alarm! most are hour-hand only, so the best you can do for setting the alarm is +/-6-7 minutes. While fine once you've set it/lived with it, the lack of accuracy can suck. The 980 however has a separate minute hand, allowing setting to within a minute or two!

I've got 2 on my todo-queue (well, 1 here, exactly like this one, and a blue on on the way!), and am really looking forward to them.

Good luck with your sale, I hope this finds a great home!
