A Gents 1940s 9ct Gold Omega Wrist Watch

A gents 9 carat gold Omega wrist watch.

The watch has a 30T2 PC hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Omega name and the serial number of 10,768,880 dates it back to the mid 1940s.

The watch itself measures 33mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Birmingham 1946, with a case maker’s mark for the Dennison Watch Case Company who supplied cases for many watch manufacturers. The hallmark date ties in nicely with the date of the movement. The case has the odd minor mark, and four pin-prick sized “dings” to the back, but overall very acceptable for a 1940s piece. The winding crown is a later replacement.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial has been professionally re-finished at some stage in its life and it is in lovely condition. Feuille shaped hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.
