The quintessential hand wind Omega in 18K solid gold.

Exceptional, showing only slight marks typical of careful light use.

Near perfect original dial with fancy applied 18K markers and desirable Alpha style hands rather then the more common plain stick style.

Original signed crown, new Omega strap with gold plated buckle.

Caliber 269, serial number dates this to 1964, freshly serviced.

33.75-mm not including the crown x 39.5-mm lug tip to lug tip, about the same size a a typical Seamaster from the period.

$1250.00, PayPal and US shipping included, international shipping OK, cost by location.

I really like this watch. Your pictures of it couldn't show it off more! Just like (I think?) a black strap one you sold recently. I have been looking at SS manual wind watches but I love the look of this one.
Would I be out of line if asked you approximately how many grams of 18K gold are in the case and back plate? I'm just trying to understand the 18K gold factor in a watch like this.

The downside of holidays, first I missed this original post and second i've spent all my pocket money 🙁
GLWS but secretly hope it sits a while while I save a few bawbees.
