I have a few Omega tanks i my collection and this has just arrived

It is a caliber T17 from approximately 1935. It has a 14k. gold case.

Been through the old adverts a googled for a reference without luck so far but @Tire-comedon will try to go through his archives



And the rest of the T17:

CK 3516
CK 891
CK 901
CK 921

 

Wow! What a sweet-looking watch. I'd wear that in a heartbeat. What is the case width? 24mm?

And fantastic collection in general.

 

Love it!

 

Fantastic hands!

 

Thanks, no is only 20 mm x 35 mm. so it small and more a collector piece than one to wear. Some of my other T17 are also 20 mm. so i think it was normal. A 24 mm. Omega Tank is not common i think.

 

The art deco styling is classic!

 

What a fantastic watch and collection you have!!!

 

There, FIFY.

 

this is the one, i like to wear. bigger size winged case. cal. 20F. very classy watch. sold all the other ones..... kind regards. achim

 

Fabulous looking piece

 

Amazing collection. I think I have the ref for the new one, I will be able to check and post a catalog picture only tomorrow.

 

Damn that's sweet.

Dare I say it, but .....Dibs...

 

Is the T17 the one where they made it in cooperation with Tissot and their caliber 17.5 or something like that ? I remember that there were some Tissots with Omega on the movement and there was this thing between them...

 

I'm really warming up to tank style watches, looks great.
Enjoy it!

 

Dont know if there is a connection with Tissot, but the T17 have an impressive 60 hour power reserve

 

Got it, I suppose it is an OJ 983, here in the 1940 catalog :

 

You’re really incredible

 

Thanks again Yann

 

Beautiful addition to your collection!
