·Hello, this is my first thread. I would describe myself as an enthusiastic amateur who is very interested in all things Omega. My question today is about automatics. Is there a definitive succinct resource anyone would recommend online for that part of the Omega history?
Information seems a little bit sparse possibly because Omega were not always first to that party although they often brought the best booze when they did turn up in my view.
>In particular were the 300 series their first automatics and was the bumper movement genuinely chosen for maximum winding efficiency. Also was the 470 their first full rotor movement and what drove the timing of that technology change?
I am better informed from the mid sixties onwards but I would like to know more about the early evolution of self-winding technology at Omega and this forum seemed the automatic choice…. Thanks in advance for any information which will be much appreciated.
