Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Oliver Sargent Antiques

Available for purchase is a superb Omega Royal Fleet Air Arm-issued HS8 pilot''s watch with the reference H.S./I\8 5684, dating back to circa 1943. This is an exceptional, original, and unrestored timepiece, featuring matching numbers throughout, all tied to the stores issue number 684. Uncommonly preserved, it''s a rarity to find examples that have retained all their original case components. The offered timepiece still showcases a significant portion of its original case plate, complemented by an excellent original dial and deep blued handset. The fully signed Omega ref 2292 case and movement firmly date this piece to 1943. With a diameter of 33.5mm (excluding the crown) and a lug end to lug end measurement of 40mm, it wears exceptionally well on the wrist due to its thin bezel. Priced at £2495.00, which includes shipping within the UK, this is a fabulous example of historical significance.
