Help with an Omega quartz movement "Click" to Login or Register 
IHC Member 1902

I have an Omega Quartz Wristwatch with the movement cal 1351.

Looking at a new movement our local materials suppliers offer a Circuit with the correct No. but no picture to see what they're offering.

Does anyone know what I would get if I purchased this circuit?

is it just another name for a complete movement without dial, hands, battery or is it a portion of the movement.

Any help appreciated.

Mike

Thanks a lot Peter but I don't think this is the item I was referring to.
The ones shown are $10 to $40 but the one I was looking at was $150.
This is why I thought they must mean the whole movement.
It is cousins material house in the UK but they don't answer questions. It"s up to the customer to know what they are ordering.

The Omega qtz movements covered the whole gamut, if you are looking at one of the flagship movements that price is fair. If it is described as a circuit then that's what you will get, just the circuit board. You don't identify the mvt so I cant help much. Research the movement and see who made the base calibre that it is derived from. Odds are good that the board is shared among a family of movements. Look at the tech sheet under interchangeable parts and go from there.
Good Luck.. Steve

The movement is cal 1351 This is shown on the black plastic body.

The only other information is the serial No. which is 4369976.

There is no other information on the movement.

As I said earlier I looked up what is called the circuit and it came up as $150.

What I need to know is, what does a circuit consist of.

Peter what a great document.

You have answered my question precisely.

That Omega document will be kept on file for future use.

Thanks a lot, Mike
