Introduction :
This
is the one and only Omega wrist alarm made in the 1970s which carries an
Automatic movement with quick pin-set date. From my understanding, this watch is
part of the Seamaster series. Since it has a special feature (Alarm), I
therefore decided to put it up in a separate categories.
Differ from most wrist alarm watch available in the market, say Jaeger-
LeCoultre for example (which has been one of the most famous wrist alarm
brand), the alarm time setting can only allow to set by hour hand whereas
for this Omega Memomatic which allow user to set the alarm to hour &
minute by adjusting the inner rotating disk. The small triangular pointer
(As shown at 4:00 position) indicates the Hour setting and the 2 lines (As
shown at 12:00 position) indicate the minute setting.
