: 3211.31.00 It's the one with the off-white dial
: and black sub-dials. Can someone tell me why
: this watch shows up as part of the
: Schumacher collection on the Omega site?
: Also, who likes this color combo? I'm
: seriously close to buying it.
I suspect the red, black, and white color combination has something to do with it being labeled a "Scumacher Collection" watch.
: It is considerably more expense than the
: discontinued model that's 38mm vs the 'new'
: 40mm. I also read somewhere that the
: previous one was no cosc certificate and
: that's why the new one is a bit more
: expense.
That's correct. The increased case size and the upgrade to the COSC certified 1164 movement led to a substantial price increase for this model. For what it's worth, caliber 1164 has an excellent track record. It's used in the Bond Seamaster chronograph model 2225.80.00, and that watch is built like a tank.
