wow - amazing result, and very good photos.

how did you source the parts? - online auctions, or is it possible to buy them at real shops?

Parts are very difficult to source now and are cost prohibitive versus simply buying a used genuine omega.

Franken omegas are rare and should be treasured

Two reasons why your franken is better than the original:

1. bullet proof 1120 movement, without the possibly unnecessary coaxial escapement
2. prof crystal is so nice compared to the omega crystal for that watch.

before it meets the m2m #callme

Yes, Prof crystal, against gen crystal Prof-crystal gen
does not stand a chance, so it looks
You are right
Mr.Prof crystals are incredible Thanks Steve

1120 a very good piece of work, which sometimes runs better than the chronometer standard prescribes, and it rarely and favorably to wait
