Antique Silver Omega Pocket Watch and Chain

Antique silver Omega pocket watch and chain, early 1900s.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is ticking away nicely and the time keeping is good to within around two minutes over 24 hours. The movement is protected by an inner hinged dust cover.

The watch measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the loop. The case is silver and there are Swiss hallmarks inside both case backs, together with an early Omega stamp. The case has engine turned detail to the back, together with an initialled cartouche and the date of 1903 or 1908. There is one small knock to the case back but otherwise the case is in lovely condition.

The plastic lens is in good condition with just light marks.

The enamel dial is signed F B Pluck, Jersey (probably the original retailer of the watch). There is a hairline crack running through numbers 12 and 1. Gold coloured hands (with a little marking), subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.

The watch comes on a later silver chain, 29cm long including the clasp and the T-bar. Hallmarked for 1925. Each of the links has the silver lion passant mark.
