Forbandelsen er brudt !

Tak til Mads for beskrivelsen af 33xx's fornemme slægtskab med Frederic Piquet 1185.

I denne artikel: Omega c.33xx is ≠ to the Piguet c.1185 (Illustrated), uddyber den hedengangne Chuck Maddox slægtskab og forskelle.
Nedenstående sammenligningstabel er sammenstillet på baggrund af artiklen, Ranfft og Omega,



Chuck Maddox konkluderer i sin artikel:
In any instance the differing beat, size differences as well as the layout of the sub-dials of the watch point out to the fact that the Omega c.33xx movement relationship to the c.1185 is not direct.
One can say they are related and be accurate, but to say the c.33xx is based on the c.1185 is a stretch at best. It's also a bit of a stretch to claim that the c.33xx is an in-house movement.
True both F. Piguet are owned by Swatch, and true Omega legally owns the assembly line which Piguet uses to make the c.33xx movements.
But F. Piguet is an independent company within Swatch, and saying the c.33xx is an in-house movement is a equally a stretch.
Call it an Omega Exclusive movement which is correct and everyone's happy!

Indtil videre, må jeg læne mig op ad kaliber 1516, når jeg skal fryde mig over In House blandt mine Omega'er
- Men det findes der jo løsninger på, i begge ender af Omega historien
