A great race between watchmaking firms
took place in the late XIX
and early XX century. There were a lot of competitors,
but they are distinguished by their approach and ultimate goals. Someone
quested of profit and forget about the quality, someone did not think about the
money at all and just did watches with quality, uniqueness and status! As a
result, things done thoroughly achieved a huge success. Good watches of luxury
brands were recognition marks of kings, emperors, princes and lords. Even at that time, not
everybody could impress with a unique model of a pocket watch. Of course, such
watches were very expensive, but though not always money was the problem, but deficit. Some
clocks could be created for up to 5 years!
So it happened that I got into the hands Omega
cal 40.6L, a chic mechanism of the revolution times. Just imagine, this work of
art has survived two wars! .. I got so much into the spirit, that I could not
just put it into my box .. I felt a kind of power in it. I imagined how in 1917 this mechanism was shown by
watchmaker to director of the OMEGA, and he nodded with a slight smile on his
face ..
My friend made a watchcase.. I have found
a finest craftsman and we created a design for a long time.. My old friend was
an ace of watchmaking and I brought him all the details. As always he has done
his work at a high level. I spent few days choosing a strap.. I was already
prepared when came to get the watch. And when the final touch was made we almost
cried with happiness. That was really so.. It was one million times more
beautiful than I expected.
