Omega Suverän 2400 35mm Swedish Military Issue Cal. 30t2 1944 Wrist Watch

1920 - 1940
Description

An incredibly rare and historically significant Omega Suverän reference 2400, produced in 1944 and originally made for the Swedish government and military during World War II. This is not just a vintage Omega—it’s a functioning piece of wartime history, designed to support Sweden’s war effort through civilian purchase and limited military issue.

Produced exclusively for Sweden during WWII, these “Suverän” Omegas were sold to the public to raise essential war funds, and some were also issued to Swedish military personnel. The 30T2 movement remains a legendary example of Omega’s robust and precise wartime engineering.

This example features the revered manual-wind Calibre 30T2, a 35mm stainless steel case, and the uniquely inscribed caseback:

“ANTIMAGNETISK, VATTENTÄT, STÖTSKYDDAD” — Swedish for Antimagnetic, Waterproof, Shockproof.

Archival Detail
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.
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.
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.

During the 1940s, military departments commissioned wristwatches built to strict specification requirements for legibility, water resistance, and durability. Manufacturers such as Omega produced tailored models for government forces, featuring high-contrast dials and robust manual-wind calibres.

Mid-20th-century timepieces typically featured stainless steel or chrome-plated cases, acrylic crystals, and luminous paint on the dial markings. Straps were commonly constructed from durable leather or woven canvas.

Authentic military timepieces generally display clear reference numbers on the case back, correct period movement calibres, and consistent dial patination. Markings often include specific government codes or regional issue indicators.

While worn as a personal accessory, a vintage military timepiece can be displayed within a modern interior inside a glass dome, leather valet tray, or framed shadow box on a desk or dresser.

To preserve a mechanical wristwatch, avoid exposure to water and strong magnetic fields, wind the movement gently at regular intervals, and have the internal mechanism serviced by a qualified watchmaker every three to five years.
