    Here is a nice honest Omega no-lume center-seconds hand-winder from the mid-1940s. It has an interesting chapter-ring dial with gilt 3-6-9-12 numerals, applied rose gold markers, and rose gold hands. The dial changes appearance with the angle of the light as shown in the photos. The dial is well-preserved overall, but exhibits evenly distributed age spots, especially apparent in high magnification images, but obviously less noticeable to the naked eye. I find the dial quite attractive in-person, and I've included photos from various angles in different types of lighting (including harsh lighting that highlights all flaws) so you can judge for yourself. The case is very sharp. The movement is running fine but it hasn't been serviced. So as always, I am not making any specific representations about future timekeeping, and if you are going to wear it regularly, it could certainly benefit from a service.

    Please see the photos to judge condition and don't hesitate to ask questions by DM.

    Specifications:
    Brand: Omega
    Year: 1945-46
    Model: ref 2348/5
    Movement: Omega cal 30T2 SC
    Case Material: Stainless steel
    Size: 35mm
    Lug width: 18mm
    Crystal: acrylic
    Bracelet: used tan leather strap

    My asking price is $550 USD by PP F&F or bank wire. Shipping included within the US. Other payment methods are fine for established members with fees covered.

    Very nice, and very fairly priced! This type of dial is more often found on the 30T@Rg Chronometres, and only a small percentage, at that.

    GLWTS!
