Description

Gents Omega automatic wrist watch, 1968.

The watch has a calibre 552 24-jewel automatic movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 26,850,631 which dates it back to 1968.

The watch measures 33.5mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel, there is the odd small mark but nothing too serious on the front and sides. A few more marks to the back of the watch. The inner case back has the Omega logo and also the case reference 14703 2 SC which is correct for the calibre 552 movement.

Signed Omega winding crown.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial has probably been re-finished at some stage but the work has been carried out to a high standard. Original hands and centre seconds sweep.

A later leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
