GREAT CONDITION for a vintage watch of this type, kindly refer to pictures - the bracelet does have the expected slight stretch for age.

YES, this is it.. THE LEGENDARE the MOST ACCURATE watch (MADE in SWITZERLAND), confirmed by none other than Commander Jacques Cousteau himself and crew in the 70s

In glorious GENERATION 1 MK1 version of the later Marine Chronometer rated Caliber 1511 which is THE SAME caliber, only difference is OMEGA sent that caliber to Neuchatel for Observatory recording.

Original (untouched) WAFFLE DIAL in the typical SPIDER WEB effect common to this and ROLEX dials of the same era!


History:

The most accurate wristwatch in the world. Still today, the Megaquartz 2400 is, indisputably, the most accurate, the most technologically advanced wristwatch in the world.

Developed by OMEGA in collaboration with the Battele Institute of Geneva, the first prototypes (cal. 1500) were presented at the Basel Fair in 1970.

It was first introduced on the market in 1974 (calibre 1510). Its unmatched precision of one second a month is around 10 times superior to that of an ordinary quartz watch.

This precision results from a specially designed tiny disc-shaped resonator, sealed in a capsule, which vibrates at the incredible rate of 2,359,296 times a second ! The high frequency earned one version, calibre 1511, the title of Marine Chronometer from the astronomic and chronometric observatory of Neuchatel Switzerland.

-- AND THE CAL 1511 and CAL 1510 are THE SAME EXACT MOVEMENT refer to google and see the WIKI page written on this LEGENDARE OMEGA MODEL.
