Description

Antique Omega pocket watch, c1914.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Omega and the serial number 4,337,782 dates it back to around 1914.

The watch measures 52mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The semi-hermetic case is nickel and it is in good condition for such an early piece, some gentle unevenness to the back and general light surface marks. Although this was an early attempt to produce a waterproof case, it should be kept away from water and moisture. The inside of the case back is signed with the Omega logo.

The acrylic lens is in lovely condition.

The signed dial is in super condition and the red inner 24 hour dial is a more unusual feature which is usually seen on military watches. The hour hand is a replacement but still a period hand.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this piece to the 1910s.
