Sold by: Oliver Sargent Antiques

For sale this good WW2 British Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Omega pilots watch HS8 no 3652, circa 1943. In good original condition, the case retaining most original case plate. Signed original dial, original handset, sweep seconds hand a later replacement. Excellent fully signed Omega movement dating to around 1943. The watch is just back from an overhaul/service and is running extremely well. The HS8 version has spring bars, not fixed, the main body is not the same as the alloy RAF version that tend to fracture around the case back retaining ridge and at the fixed strap bars. The HS8 being of mixed alloy and brass in an attempt to alleviate corrosion from salt water. In my opinion these are much better than their RAF counterparts.
