The solid stainless steel case remains unpolished, preserving its original integrity and aesthetic appeal.
A new crystal has been fitted, ensuring clarity and protection for the dial. The movement's serial number, 12457607, dates this exquisite timepiece back to 1950, highlighting its significance in the history of watchmaking.
With a case measuring 33.5mm across (excluding the crown) and 40.6mm lug tip to lug tip, this watch has a well-balanced size that suits a variety of wrist sizes. It will be accompanied by a brand new 18mm genuine leather strap, ensuring both comfort and style. Please note, the wrist size shown in the accompanying photo is 6 inches, showcasing the watch's versatile fit. This Omega watch is not just a timekeeping instrument; it is a timeless piece of art with a rich heritage that will surely be cherished for years to come.
