The Vintage Wrist Watch Company

Description

A gents 9 carat gold 1950s Omega wrist watch.

The watch has a hand-winding movement, calibre 267, which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and the serial number 15,604,464 dates it back to around 1957.

The watch itself measures 32.5mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Birmingham 1958 with a maker’s mark for the Dennison Watch Case Company. Movements were often imported to the UK to be cased as it was a way of avoiding high import taxes on precious metals. The case is in good condition.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in its original finish, dauphine hands which appear to be the originals, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE.

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund.

Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
