I have an Omega Geneve,18k gold,dated approx.1960s It has a micrometric adjuster on the regulator,seemingly,from what I can gather,giving it 'railroad watch'accuracy.Can anyone let me know if that is the case,and if so,is it more valuable than an ordinary Omega movement. Need urgent reply to this question. | ||

Do you know which caliber it is, that way I can look it up and have a picture available, so that I can have an informed answer. Zaf | ||

Zaf, Think it is caliber nos.565. Hope this will help. Also does this micrometric adjuster make my watch more accurate,wich I would presume,and also more valuable? | ||

Hi. Assuming the watch is serviced and none of the parts are worn too badly, the micrometric regular will offer a higher degree of fine tuning to the watchmaker when it comes to making the timing adjustments. Everything else being equal, a movement with this type of regulation will be worth more than the same watch that is without. The cal. 565 is fairly common from Omega, a real workhorse of the era but yet still of very high quality. Zaf |
