Description

This is an exceptional example of a very rare gents solid 9ct gold pocket watch chronograph made by Omega.

The case is fully hallmarked and dates its manufacture to 1936.

The gilt finished calibre 39 Chro movement has just been fully serviced and is running to within original temekeeping specification, the single button chronograph works and resets perfectly. This is the first Omega chronograph with column wheel selection, the great grandaddy to the legendary calibre 321 used by the Apollo astronauts 321. Only 6900 of these movements were ever made, this is a movement built to impress.

The original white enamel dial is perfect there are no hairlines, cracks, chips or blemishes it is perfect. It has matching peacock blue and rose gold hands again umblemished.

This is an exceptional find, it looks like it has been kept in a drawer its whole life and probably never used, it would make a wonderful gift.

During the 1930s, Omega was renowned for precision timekeeping, producing highly reliable mechanical movements, chronographs, and pocket watches for professional and everyday use before wristwatches completely dominated the market.

Vintage pocket watches typically feature precious metal cases such as 9-carat or 18-carat gold, enamel dials with painted numerals, and intricate brass or steel mechanical movements protected by glass or crystal covers.

Authentic pieces feature manufacturer signatures and serial numbers engraved on the inner case back and movement, matching hallmarks for precious metal purity, and precise Swiss mechanical movements signed by the maker.

A vintage pocket watch can be displayed on a desk stand, within a glass cloche on a mantelpiece, or stored securely in a study as part of a classic horological collection.

Antique mechanical watches require regular professional servicing, careful manual winding without overwinding, avoidance of moisture and magnetic fields, and storage in a dry, temperature-controlled environment.
