Used to have one - the OM1-TR was also branded Soligor, and was sold as an
"own-brand" in UK by the Jessops chain. The built-in intervalometer is an
improvement over a Winder 1 or 2 (though with only he preset intervals
available), the optional remote release is nothing more than a latching
push-to-make button switch. Drawback in my experience is that it drains
batteries when switched on - even when not winding. And it is not contoured
to fit the OM body - it is more rectangular, thus sticks out.
A Winder 1 or 2 with your already-acquired OM Quartz remote will do the same
and much more.

Subject: [OM] Samigon OM-1TR winder???
Has anyone heard of a Samigon wider for OM cameras?
Here is I am told:
"Winder by Samigon fits Olympus (they make others for Nikon, Canon, Minolta,
etc.) This one is lighter than Olympus's winder and brand new runs about
$75. It has a built in interval timer which will fire at your choice of 5
sec., 30 sec., 60 sec. or 5 minutes, or you can use it for single or
continuous advance. Model OM-1TR..PLUS it has the remote access as well."
I am intrigued by the built-in interval timer.
