Description

This is a very rare Art Deco Omega Cioccolatone bumper automatic from 1954-55

This is a jumbo sized watch measuring 32mm wide by 42mm long

The movement is Omegas highly reliable automatic calibre 344 Bumper.

An Omega "bumper" is a vintage Omega that has a "bumper" automatic movement rather than a full rotation rotor automatic. The oscillating weight makes a partial rotation before "bumping" into a cushioning spring. This is the earliest type of automatic movement.

The dial is perfect having just been professionally restored. It has the Omega logo and the model reference number 3950 to the inside of the case back.

The case is in fabulous condition all we have done is give it a full ultrasonic clean and a light polish.

The watch has just been fully serviced and is guaranteed to be genuine Omega in all respects. It is keeping time to within Omegas original specification and comes with a one year warranty.

We have shown it with both tan and black straps but we can fit any colour or style of strap you prefer we keep most things in stock.

A true collectors or heirloom watch not to be missed.

We offer a highly personalised and bespoke service.

If you would like to buy or reserve this watch please telephone us on 01726 813155 or email

Art Deco watch design is characterised by geometric shapes, stylised numerals, streamlined cases, and a balance of functionality with ornamental elegance, popular from the 1920s through the 1950s.

Timepieces from this era typically feature stainless steel or gold cases, acrylic crystals, leather straps, and mechanical hand-wound or early bumper automatic movements.

Authenticity is verified by examining the movement calibre numbers, case hallmarking, dial typography consistency, and verifying the matching serial numbers against manufacturer archives.

A vintage timepiece serves as a sophisticated statement accessory, easily paired with tailored formal wear or used to add a touch of classic refinement to smart-casual attire.

Preservation requires regular mechanical servicing by a professional horologist, avoiding exposure to moisture and magnetic fields, and storing the piece in a climate-controlled environment.
