OW - 8000
With its typical hexagonal brushed stainless steel case, the OW - 8000 embodies the very peak of the Swiss watchmaking industry before the dark years of the Quartz Crisis. It is driven by the famous Valjoux 7750 movement, among one of the first to combine a chronograph to automatic movement, a feature that would become a constant on future OW models. Like all OW watches, it was made robust and waterproof, thanks to a screwed case back and crown.
