Vintage Omega Olympic Rattrapante Timer on eBay

With the Winter Olympics coming up in Vancouver it’s probably only fitting to find a Omega Olympic Rattrapante on eBay this week.

This was one of a series of specially-made Rattrapante (“split seconds”) timers Omega made especially for use at the Olympics, beginning with the Summer Games in Mexico City in 1966. The red outer case is designed simply to protect the watch and features a push-through pusher that allows for operation even when the watch is inside the case.
