    Thanks OF + MS
    Lovely condition-one of the nicest examples of this watch that I have ever seen
    1956 Omega 6B/159 Royal Air Force Pilot's/Crew Navigation Watch Air Ministry (AM)
    "...in 1956 the British Ministry of Defense modified existing stocks of its wartime Omega wristwatches by repainting the dials and hands, and re casing them in the more robust and larger (36mm without crown) screw-back stainless steel version sourced from the well regarded case maker Dennison. The watches were then reissued to RAF pilots and crew and used in active service for navigation."
    This is the iconic black dialed version of this watch
    New main spring installed by my watch man about a year ago-winds like butta
