Dear Omega Forum,

I am offering a truly exceptional and rare Omega CK 615 from 1939, renowned for its iconic “Scarab” lugs and distinctive Art Deco styling. This watch is not just a stunning example of Omega’s craftsmanship from the late 1930s but also a remarkable piece of horological history.



The white print dial very is clean, symmetric and balanced, and it is this forum’s opinion that it has been redialed. I will thus mark it professionally restored.

The price of the watch now reflects this.

Black dials from this era are exceptionally hard to find. Coupled with the elegant Roman numerals at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, silver hands, and a small seconds subdial, it exemplifies the refined aesthetic of the period.




Historical Context:
The Omega CK 615, produced in the late 1930s, is a prime example of Omega’s commitment to blending technical innovation with stylish design. Its signature “Scarab” lugs are a nod to the geometric influences of the Art Deco era, while its compact size and dressy appearance made it a distinguished choice for the discerning gentleman.



This particular watch boasts a fascinating provenance, having been meticulously maintained as a family heirloom in Germany for generations. Its outstanding condition today is a testament to the care and respect it has received over the decades.

Withdrawn for now, as there are ongoing conversations on another thread as to whether this dial was repainted.

In order not to deceive anyone, I will regroup before relisting.

Thank you to the members that have enquired via message.
