Gents 1950s Omega Wrist Watch

A gents 1950s Omega wrist watch.

The watch has a calibre 266 hand-winding movement which is ticking away very nicely and the time keeping is good to within around one to two minutes over 24 hours. The movement is signed Omega, Swiss and it has the serial number 14,152,207 which dates it back to the mid 1950s.

The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is in good condition with just marking to the case back where an earlier strap has been. The inside of the case back has the Omega triangular stamp and also the case reference 2750 which is correct for the calibre 266 movement. The winding crown is a later non-Omega replacement.

The lens is in a pleasing condition.

The textured dial has the applied Omega logo and is also signed Omega, Swiss Made. There is a mixture of numbers and faceted markers, dauphine shaped hands and a subsidiary seconds dial. There is a little marking to the dial and perhaps some age related darkening but overall it has charming vintage appeal.

A new brown leather strap has been fitted.
