Gents Omega Wrist Watch, 1960

Gents Omega wrist watch.

The watch has a hand-winding movement, calibre 267, which is working well and the time keeping is good to within around two minutes over 24 hours. The movement is signed Omega, Swiss and it has the serial number 17,567,188 which dates it back to 1960.

The watch measures 33.5mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The Denisteel case (by the English watch case maker Aaron Dennison). The front and sides of the case are in good condition; the snap-on case back has some marking. The inside of the case back has the Omega triangular stamp. The winding crown is a later replacement but sits well with the watch.

The lens is in good order.

The dial has the applied Omega logos and applied numbers, original hands (the finish has come off the minute hand so it is a slightly different colour to the hour hand), and outer minute markers. The dial is in its original finish and there is some age related discolouration and marking but it is very acceptable for a 1960 piece.

A new brown leather strap has been fitted.
