Thanks for the replies and all the great information. I think I saw Desmonds blog a while ago and clearly I did not check it out fully (my bad). It is a wonderful resource he has provided for us and I just downloaded 11mb of pdfs to read through. Also, thanks to your recommendations I have just ordered a copy of Omega designs. Compared to a lot of horology books it was a good price and mine should arrive Monday – I just hope it is the English version. I am jealous of the 2374-3 – nice looking watch and great history. I am still interested in the engineering process that took Omega to the bi-directional solution and the timing for that design but I will see what I find in the information above. I have to say I love my 564 movement. Even now it starts to tick almost before I touch the watch… it is like photons are enough to set it moving. Amazing engineering.
Cheers again for the help.
