Description

WW1 Omega pocket watch and albert.

The watch has a gilt stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Omega name and it has the serial number 4,866,812 which dates it back to around 1915. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover. This inner cover has a handful of scratches from where it has been opened in the past.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel. The front and sides of the case are in good condition. The hinged case back has some unevenness.

The acrylic lens has general light marking across it but is very acceptable.

The signed dial is in good condition, just a faint hairline coming up through number 5. Originally there would have been painted detail to the hands and the numbers but this has been removed over the years, probably because of the radium content in the paint.

The watch comes with a leather albert.

The watch and albert comes in a new presentation box.
