Gents 1961 Omega Wrist Watch

Gents 1961 Omega wrist watch.

The watch has a 17-jewel calibre 600 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed, and the serial number 18,883,138 dates it back to 1961.

The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel and it is in good condition with just general light surface marks. The inside of the case back has the Omega logo together with the case reference 14758 SC-61 which is correct for the calibre 600 calibre and it also confirms the date of manufacture as 1961.

Omega winding crown.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial has been professionally re-finished to a high standard. Original dauphine shaped hands and seconds sweep.

The watch comes with a plain non-Omega beads of rice style bracelet which currently fits an 18cm wrist, although there is capacity on the clasp to make it about 2cm smaller if necessary. There is some unevenness where the strap meets the bottom lugs.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
