Watch 101: An Omega Manual

  • By Men's Folio

So simple, it boggles the mind that no other manufacture has attempted this yet: presenting Omega’s video walk-through of some of its most popular timepieces. A world premiere and quite possibly a gamechanger, this series of animated illustrations make for fascinating viewing, even for the non-watch fancier. Omega collectors will be especially thrilled to see the fine Swiss watchmaker harnessing the power of the Internet to make the hitherto intimidating and somewhat secretive world of horology both welcoming and engaging to the YouTube generation. 

To kick you off on your journey, here’s a step-by-step manual demonstrating the inner workings of the complications associated with the movement that powers one of our favorite models, the Omega Seamaster. You’ll walk away with a greater appreciation of what goes into the gleaming work of art wrapped around your wrist—not to mention a few cocktail conversation-friendly facts to regale your buddies with at your next party!
