The Milestone 1941 from Omega is a great looking addition to their Omega Museum Collection.

Old-timey chronographs are some of my favorite kinds of vintage watches. There’s something almost renaissance-looking to pre-1960s chronos (as opposed to the more rugged Daytona-like look that became popular with the advent of auto racing) that I really enjoy, and it’s always cool to see companies issuing (or in this case re-issuing) retro-styled watches but with the added delight of more modern parts (frankly, I’m just bitter because the acrylic crystal on the 1940s Chronographe Suisse in the link above keeps falling off…). – From James List
