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
30T2 Manual Wind Movement
16 Jewels
Measures approx 46 mm lug to lug x 36 mm not including crown
IWW Genuine Pigskin Strap with no buckle included
16 mm Fixed Bars
Has not been serviced and worn very little during the past 5 years
Runs well and keeps time but may need to be serviced
Case, Dial, Hands all in very nice condition
There is a plastic protector on the case back-the back is in excellent condition
no scratches on back or case
No returns on this
