Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1940s.
This is the early and rare Omega jumbo bumper automatic
The watch has the calibre 351 automatic bumper movement and the serial number dates this accurately to 1949,
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, this was Omegas first automatic movement.
The movement has just been serviced and the two tone dial professionally restored to new condition.
A new glass has been fitted
The Omega symbol is on the winding crown, it has an Omega buckle and it is fully marked Omega on the dial, movement and case as you would expect.
The watch case measures 37.5mm in diameter not including the crown, very big for the period.
We can offer a choice of straps, we keep most colours and styles in stock.
