The 9 o’clock dial of the Omega Speedmaster Co-Axial Chronograph combines the chronograph hours and minutes together on a scale featuring two hands, and a date aperture takes residence at 6 o’clock instead of the usual 3-register dial layout. Aside from being equipped with an escapement that reduces friction and allows the movement to run smoothly with less lubricant - the difference between these Speedmaster models and the likes of the Co-Axial Chronograph watch, is the layout of the chronograph dials.

There are simply too many of them to be really limited. none of them really is able to become an icon. There are several limited editions and this has been creating confusion from those trying to find a piece which could hold value. Limited Editions might not be a safe bet. The demand for Omega watches is high right now, but so is the supply, hence why they don’t currently fetch the same money as the likes of Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, who produce their timepieces in limited numbers. The supply and demand of an Omega will determine whether it’s valuable or not. One reason why they are widely collected on a global scale is partly to do with their affordability. Omega watches are prized for their reliability, their superb performance, and their distinct style. Although not as expensive as some rival luxury watch brands on the market:
Here are a few reasons why Omega watches are so expensive and therefore highly investible. There are several other factors to consider when buying an Omega watch as an investment and many reasons as to why they have come to be so desirable within elite watch collecting circles.
