Brand new to the world of vintage omega watches but absolutely loving my albatros it was a big purchase for me and my first omega but it’s such a brilliant piece

Is there an online pdf of operating instructions somewhere? Particularly keen to understand the crown operation. Thanks for the help!

 

Here is a hardcopy for sale https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-chrono-quartz-albatros-1611-manual.137269/

 

Thanks for the suggestion but the purchase of the watch was a stretch so not looking for an additional purchase at the moment

also alarmingly the analogue clock now seems to have stopped I pulled out the crown and saw the first stage set in 1 hour increments and when I pushed the crown back it didn’t start telling time again, digital part of the watch fully functional, any thoughts or advice to what might have happened and how to resolve is very welcome!

 

Needs a new battery.

 

The photos are not that good, but at least something:

Good find!!!

 

If the problem isn`t solved with just a new battery thats where the big problems starting Omega can`t help and spare parts are very rare for this watch.
You will need to find a real specialist on this movement.

 

Super helpful replies thank you!! Works like new with new batteries. Been wearing as a daily for several weeks now and loving it, a real delight to own
