Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1950s.
It has the early Mark 1 calibre 354 fully automatic chronometre grade movement.
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.
The dial is a rare white two tone, the change in colour tone is caused by the graining of the substrate and to the eye appears to change tone according to the angle of view. It is in mint condition having been fully restored.
The constellation symbol on the back of the case is bright and crisp.
It has the Omega logo on the winding crown and a genuine Omega buckle.
A new glass has been fitted and the case has been professionally polished so it is in superb condition.
It has a 14ct gold case and measures 35mm in diameter excluding the winding crown.
As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case.
It comes complete with a new premium quality brown leather strap and its original presentation box to keep your watch in perfect condition.
Omega are one of the most exclusive watchmakers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance that whispers class.
Overall this watch is in outstanding condition and highly sought after by Omega collectors indeed it looks as if it was rarely worn and by far the best example we have ever seen.
The watch has been fully serviced by and is guaranteed to be a genuine Omega in all respects. It has been professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.
It is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers parts. Each part is then thoroughly cleaned in a three stage ultrasonic cleaning process.
The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturers approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and sealed.
Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give you reliable and dependable service and will not require further service for many years.
