Omega Ww2 Raf Issued 6b/159 Pilots All Stainless Steel Watch, Re-issued Pakistan Airforce

1920 - 1940
Description

For sale this exceptional, rare, and desirable, Omega WW2 RAF issued full stainless-steel pilots/navigators watch, ref 6B/159 issue no A9673, then re-issued to the Pakistan Air Force circa 1947. Fully signed throughout and in full working order, they do not get much better than this one on offer. Yes, it is a full stainless-steel case with fixed strap bars. Excellent fully signed dial and deep-blued handset. The watch is in full working order keeping time. The inside of the snap case back is also signed and carries the case ref number 10549123. Fitted on a Stainless steel Bonklip strap. Diameter 32.5mm excluding crown.

One other illustrated example is shown in Military Timepieces by Z M Wesolowski, issue no A12696, also bearing the PAF mark, but the author referring that particular example to the Polish Air Force.

It is today now considered that the PAF stands for the Pakistan Airforce which was created and equipped by the British Royal Airforce as part of the creation and partitioning of India and Pakistan in 1946-1947.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

The 6B/159 specification was issued by the British Air Ministry during World War II for Royal Air Force pilots and navigators. Omega manufactured these precision timepieces with clear dials, high-contrast numerals, and durable mechanical movements to assist with operational navigation.

Military timepieces of this era typically featured solid stainless steel or alloy cases, acrylic crystals, and hand-wound mechanical movements. Dials were rendered in neutral tones with high-contrast Arabic numerals and dark steel hands for clear legibility.

Authentic military timepieces carry specific Air Ministry issue markings engraved on the case back, such as the 6B/159 code alongside military issue numbers. Correct movement calibre markings, period-accurate dial typography, and correct case construction further confirm authenticity.

A military issue wristwatch offers a refined, utilitarian aesthetic suitable for pairing with both formal tailored clothing and modern casual wear. Attaching a classic neutral leather strap or woven NATO strap highlights the functional heritage of the piece.

Keep vintage mechanical watches away from magnetic fields, extreme temperature changes, and moisture, as historical cases are generally not water-resistant. Servicing by a qualified horologist every three to five years ensures the mechanical movement remains correctly lubricated and operational.
