·Hi all!
Resurrecting this thread with a couple questions :
- the pencil syringe hands appear to be sometimes thin and sometimes larger (less often) on the pictures, are both types correct for a suveran?
- does anyone know the crystal reference? I can’t seem to find it?
Thanks!

·That's a fantastic collection.. I adore those modernist Bauhaus-influenced dials in particular, especially the top middle.. Absolutely stunning..
I'd love one of these but, I just wished they didn't look so small on my wrist 🙁
Are there any websites with more on the Suveran?

·What’s the maximum size of these?

I tried an Omega WWW on in Burlington Arcade last week and it was so lovely, but so lost on my wrist,
and without my glasses on my eyesight it's not brilliant either 🙁

·Yes 35.5mm is a good size for the time, similar to most of the dirty dozen apart from the 38mm Cyma I believe..

Perhaps looking at it a different way.
Loving the history of the 30mm movement that includes Suverän and the W.W.W are only two of the categories of this massive topic.
This thread and book should help
https://omegaforums.net/threads/a-s...k-omega-30mm-chronometers.94927/#post-1232714
along with an external link that several member here have contributed towards.
http://squelettewatches.com/chronometres-30mm/
It could help you find a watch that has the history and design language you are connecting with in a size that will suit you.
I know there was a recent reinterpretation of some these small models in a "modern" sizing eg 44mm
The subject area is huge Vintage to Current Omega ranges like Seamaster, Constallation, de Ville, globemaster
Might be helpful if you start a thread dedicated to your journey.
That way we can all chime in there with ideas and keep this thread for ref 2400
Happy reading

·How do you know when you have winded up an old manual clock fully?
Shall you wind until it stops?
Are there any risk to break the spring?

·Hi ! My experience is that I know approx the number of winds each watch needs, so I slow down as I think I get close to the end, then I feel the end, and I do not insist. Never had any problems.
Then to answer you question, there is a risk if you insist once you feel the "lock", so don't be too harsh, old ladies don't like being brutal !

·Winded it up and it went for 36h spot on time.
I believe that is acceptable
