Omega 30T2 SC Description

The Omega 30T2 is a legendary 30mm manual-wind caliber family. The “SC” variant signifies “Seconde Centrale,” a sweep second hand. Introduced in the 1940s, this robust and highly accurate movement was a mainstay in classic Omega timepieces. Its superb design was the basis for many observatory chronometer champions and later evolved into the Cal. 28x series (e.g., Cal. 283), powering Omega watches for over two decades.
