MUSEUM COLLECTION N° 8
“Racend Timerâ€
OMEGA is renowned for its innovation in the field of sports timing and it is fitting that the watch which pays tribute to the Racend Timer is a technological as well as an aesthetic marvel.
The Omega Museum Collection N° 8 “Racend Timer†honours one of OMEGA’s most distinguished contributions to the world of sports timing. In 1949, the first photofinish camera, the Racend Timer, was introduced, solving the problem of grouped arrivals at the finish lines of track events. The “Racend Timer†is driven by the exclusive OMEGA Co-Axial calibre 3201 whose revolutionary Escapement and free sprung balance deliver stable long-term accuracy and reliability. The COSC-certified chronometer has a sophisticated column-wheel chronograph mechanism. The 39 mm case and the bezel are made of polished, brushed 18-Ct rose gold. The hour and minute hands are also formed in rose gold. The polished, clasped 18-Ct rose gold caseback is decorated with a special Museum engraving and the limited edition number.
This Omega Racend Timer has a creamed opaline silver dial which is viewed through a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment and has transferred pulsometer (red) and tachymeter (blue) tracks. The watch is water resistant to 30 metres. This Museum Collection piece has a brown alligator strap on a polished 18-Ct rose gold buckle and is being produced in a limited edition, appropriately, to 1949 pieces.
