More information
Omega La Magique is one of the thinnest watches ever made with a case thickness of about 2.5 mm. The watch is sometimes called ”The Phantom” thanks to its transparent center of the dial which lets the colour of the wearer’s shirt or skin light through the center and thereby change the appearance of the watch and adapt to its surroundings. It is also known from the iconic movie Scarface where Al Pacino wears the model with a gold bracelet.
Although having a quartz movement it is a complex watch where the hands consist of very thin discs that rotate thanks to cogwheels. It is not known how many Omega produced, but a number that is often mentioned is 261, making it very rare.
