In brief

Where the 592 got 25 jewels, the 593 got 17. It is the closest sibling to the 590 inside the same group of compact calibres.

Short history

The 59x series reached the catalogue in 1960, with the 590, the 591 and the 592 as its other members — automatics of smaller diameter than the rest of what Omega was building at the time.
