Omega Vintage Small Seconds
More actions
Omega vintage small seconds describes Omega's manual-wind watches carrying a subsidiary, off-center seconds subdial, typically at 6 o'clock, rather than a central sweep hand: the layout Korean retail listings render as "독립초침" ("independent seconds"), meaning the seconds hand runs on its own subdial independent of the hour and minute hands. Omega used this dial architecture across manual calibers such as the 265 and 268 family through the 1940s, 1950s and into the 1960s, before central sweep seconds became the standard layout on its dress watches.
Tae-young (Jung Woo-sung) wears a vintage Omega with this small-seconds layout in Beasts Clawing at Straws (2020); the retailer that supplied the piece names the complication but not a caliber, case metal, or reference.
