Gents Omega gold capped wrist watch, 1950
UK POSTAGE ONLY FOR THIS ITEM
Gents Omega gold capped wrist watch, 1950.
The watch has a calibre 342 17-jewel bumper automatic movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 12,513,163 which dates it back to 1950.
Early automatic movements such as this one relied on the rotor ‘bumping’ backwards and forwards between two springs to maintain the power within the movement. Later automatic watches have the fully rotational rotor.
The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is gold capped which means a generous layer of 14k gold has been applied to the front and sides of the lugs and the bezel is solid 14k gold. It was said that the gold capping was so thick that it could hold its shape when not fitted to the case and apparently the salesman used to carry a sample of just the gold capping to demonstrate how strong it was. The case is in lovely condition. Later plain winding crown.
The lens is in lovely condition.
The signed dial has been re-finished at some stage in the past, it is in good condition with original hands, facted batons and subsidiary seconds dial.
A new leather strap has been fitted.
The watch comes 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.
