Copied from @LightGeek as he explains how this incredible movement works!

 

"A bumper refers to a watch that has a "pendulum" based automatic winding mechanism. In these movements there is no rotor but rather weight that swings. When the weight reaches the end of its motion, it usually bumps against a shock absorbing spring. It has a distinct feeling when wearing it on the wrist and you can actually feel the bumping."

 

 

 

 

I find myself taking the vintage omega hobby very seriously, as i have two more incoming and one alreadt at hand! Ofcorse i wont only be playing around with some Omegas, there will be a lot more intresting watches that i fancy that i think its worth sharing with you guys!

 

 

 

 

 

Cheers!
