This particular reference is known as the Centenary 1948, and is the fifth piece within the collection. It is essentially a remake of the Centenary from 1948, re-imagined for the modern collector but very sympathetic to the original. It's a vintage watch, created for the modern era.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe case is made of 18k rose gold, and measures in at 36.2mm, with a flowing, organic shape that reminds us a little of a modern Laurent Ferrier Origin when viewed from above. The copper dial is straight out of the 1948, with a vertically brushed inner section surrounded by a railroad minute track, outboard of which sits beautiful applied gold markers with Arabic 12 and 6. There is a slight dome to the sapphire crystal, which adds some distortion to the dial when viewed on an angle, and it feels like a vintage watch that was made yesterday.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe nod to the modern is in the movement, as it is powered by a co-axial Omega calibre 2202, and it is finished with a handmade HANDDN Barenia leather strap with 18k red gold Omega pin buckle.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis particular example dates from 2006 and presents in TZ 'Excellent' condition.
