Gents Omega Wrist Watch, 1962

Gents Omega wrist watch, 1962.

The watch has a 17-jewel calibre 268 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 19,193,018 dates it back to 1962.

The watch measures 33mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel. The front and sides are in good condition, just general light surface marks, nothing serious at all. The case back has an indentation and a short light scratch. The inside of the case back is signed with the Omega logo, and it has the case reference 14713-61 which is correct for the calibre 268, and it confirms the date of manufacture as 1961.

Signed winding crown.

The lens is in lovely condition.

The signed dial has dauphine shaped hands, subsidiary seconds and outer minute markers.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
