Gents 9ct Gold Omega Wrist Watch, 1944

UK POSTAGE ONLY

Gents 9ct gold Omega wrist watch, 1944.

The watch has a 15-jewel 30T2 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Omega name, and it has the serial number 10,361,610 which dates it back to 1944.

The watch measures 33.5mm diameter excluding the later winding crown and the lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Birmingham 1945 together with the case maker’s mark for Montal. The company was founded in Birmingham, UK in 1942 and moved to Cheltenham after the Birmingham Blitz. It is quite unusual to find an Omega watch with a Montal case. The case reference is 5001 which is correct for the 30T2 calibre. The case is in lovely condition.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in its original finish with original blued steel hands. The dial is in its original finish which has built up nice patination and light freckling over the years.

A later leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box
