Introduced in 1966, the Chronostop under the Genève line was Omega's answer to the late-60s racing and driver watch craze. Unlike a traditional chronograph, it uses a single pusher at 2 o'clock to stop and flyback the bright orange seconds hand - designed for timing short intervals. Created during the build-up to the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, the Chronostop became an icon of tool-watch design. This is Reference 146.009 \/ 146.010 from 1969 housing the manual-wind Caliber 920 with date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCASE:\u003cbr\u003eo Stainless steel barrel \/ cushion-shaped monocoque case in fine honest vintage condition - sharp geometry, original sunburst brushing still visible\u003cbr\u003eo Screw-down caseback inner engraved \"OMEGA WATCH Co - FAB.
