*** SOLD *** Back up for sale. Asking $1,200 with cordovan strap and signed buckle included (6-17-18). Case: The case measures 36mm sans crown with 19mm lugs. The case does show signs of some light polishing but overall is still in good condition. Dial: The dial does show patina and has a warm hue to it. I find the color pleasing even compared to my other 2748 (now sold). You can see comparison photos below. I found this one hard to photograph as it looks much better in person. Arrowhead markers are apparently white gold on this reference. Crown: Original signed crown. Movement: Cal. 266 in the 14 million range. It appears to be working as intended but the service history is unknown. Please assume it needs a service. Crystal: The crystal is low profile and in great condition. Strap and Buckle: See more recent reply with pictures of the included strap / buckle. (edited: 6-17-18) View attachment 545082 This is the same watch sold by Tony C. here. I'm asking $1,200 (previously $1,800) shipped continental US. Paypal payment preferred. DHL International express for an extra $50. You can look me up under the same name on ebay.

Guys, this is a truly charming watch, the dial looks much better and warmer than has been conveyed in the pictures (sorry wstmtn). This reference wears generously, shows a kind of classic styling you can't imitate, and has an absolutely fantastic caliber inside. If I didn't have one I'd be first in line.
Crosshairs.. arrowhead markers.. two tone dial.. 30mm movement.. slim oversized case.. stainless steel.. It's surprisingly still available. I'm asking $1,800 but I will take offers. Edit: Adding a picture borrowed from the previous seller (thanks Tony C.) as I think it better captures how the watch looks in the flesh. It seems like my iphone pics add contrast.
These are classic, and I still own several. Understated? Yes. Under the radar in a market in which flashy chronographs and divers largely rule? Yes. But for those who appreciate the best of the time-only watches from the 1950s, a good example of these early Genève models is well worth owning.
Edit: Watch has been withdrawn. It's up for auction on ebay. This was from yesterday (overcast lighting).
It's a nice & honest watch, but posting that you're losing money isn't going to help you sell it. We can't help it if you grossly overpaid for it in the first place.
Back up for sale for $1,200. Price includes signed Omega buckle and brand new Horween Shell Cordovan strap from Jones in Tokyo (pictured below).
