Hey @Raymondo5508,

Might be worth throwing in some more detail for the uninitiated!

Model looks to be a reference 2569.52.00 steel Omega Seamaster Racing Chronometer, on black rubber strap.

The count-up function is a Yacht Timer, rather than an APNEA count-up (as found on the Mayol APNEA Seamaster 300m).

From Omega's website:

Useful info on the regatta timer function, from Regatta-Yachtimers.com:

How the countdown function works:

This Omega 3602 regatta movement differs from other timers as in addition to a regatta module, it also has a fully operational chronograph! It was developed by Dubois-Dépraz in 1993 and first used by Piquot Meridien, read here.

The watch has the crown to set the time at 3 o’clock, and two pushers for the countdown and chronograph functions; one pusher at 2 o’clock for start/stop and another at 4 o’clock for reset. There are five round holes cut out of the dial, between 10 and 2 o’clock, and the indicator disk coloured black, blue, and red sits underneath. Besides the indicator disk the chronograph also has a large center second hand, a subdial at 9 o’clock with a 30 minutes register (of which the first 5 minutes are coloured blue, and the second 5 minutes red, just like the indicator disk), and a subdial at 6 o’clock with a 12 hour register. The subdial at 3 o’clock shows the running seconds.

After the chronograph has been reset, the five dots on the dial turn black. When the chrono is activated the countdown starts, the sweep hand is set in motion and the indicator disk runs continuously clockwise. After one minute the first dot turns blue, and the 30 minutes register counts 1 minute. After five minutes all 5 dots are blue, and after the 6th minute the first dot turns red while the other 4 dots remain blue. And after 10 minutes all 5 dots have turned red.

Unless you push the stop pusher and stop the chronograph, the indicator disk continues to rotate and so after another 5 minutes the dots are all black, and the cycle starts again. So the regatta countdown function can be used for a 10 minute start as well as for a 15 minute start.

GLWS! 👍
