Watch descriptionAbout Omega 1503.10 / 150310:
Add a commanding accent to your business couture with the Omega Double Eagle mens chronometer automatic watch. Offering an appealing balance of luxury, durability, and precision, it features the Omega 2500 caliber automatic movement, which has been certified as a chronometer by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Control). Only 3 percent of watches produced in Switzerland are "chronometer-certified." To achieve this highly coveted certification, the movements are subjected to numerous tests over a period of 15 consecutive days and nights, in five positions and at three different temperatures. The wide, round brushed stainless steel case is topped by a slightly raised bezel that features engraved Roman numerals and wide claw accents at 3 and 9 oclock. The stainless steel bracelet band flows seamlessly from the case and is slightly tapered. Its composed of alternating wide links and contrasting thin bands. The yellow gold dial background includes highly polished silver-tone baton hands (with seconds hand) and dial markers as well as a window at 3 oclock for the date display. The large, round watch measures 42mm wide (1.65 inches) and 15mm thick (0.47 inches). Other features include a scratch-resistant and glare-proofed domed sapphire crystal, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet)--offering protection from accidental splashes as well suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and light recreational diving. Automatic Watch Movement The Omega Story But Omega is more than just a fashionable watch. In 1965, the Omega Speedmaster chronograph was "flight-qualified by NASA for all manned space missions" as the only wristwatch to have withstood all of the U.S. space agencys severe tests, including passing grades for extreme shocks, vibrations, and temperatures ranging from -18 to +93 degrees Celsius. The greatest moment in the Speedmasters history was undoubtedly 20 July 1969 at 02:56 GMT, when it recorded mans first steps on the Moons surface as part of the Apollo 11 mission. Today, Omega is known for its rigorous testing of new movements, cases, and bands. Each new Omega movement is tested on the wrist in existing Omega models, while various laboratory tests are conducted to determine temperature-resistance, shock-resistance and vibration-resistance.

This is my second Omega watch the first being a 1968 Constellation. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the Constellation Double eagle was available. My '68 Constellation is in perfect running order and has been a joy to own. It was passed down to me by my family. When I saw the affordable price from Amazon for the 2500 Co-Axial movement, I could not pass it up. This, along with the 1968 Constellation will be passed along for generations to come.
