Just bought off Facebook tonight an Enicar 25 jewel manual wind in exceptional original condition for a good price, deceased estate, totally unmolested.
Talked to the surviving partner so got a good account of the history, a very rarely worn watch.
Might get a service for it but not essential at the moment.
Came quite unexpectedly, had coincidentally just passed on a black dialed example last night at auction (I was out bid to ridiculous price before bowing out) at the same price but in very poor and faulty condition ( these are non incabloc) so this near as damnit perfect example made my day!
This is my first post & I would like to start by sharing my very interesting auction purchase in Glasgow, Scotland a few days ago with photographs. I think I got an absolute bargain as it was in a joblot with four other very boring & cheap dress watches.
The watch is a tiny little 1939 Omega Acier Staybrite with fantastic provenance as it comes with a French receipt from Lille, dated 9th March 1940 which is only a few months before the signing of the armistice after the Battle of France following the German WW2 invasion.
I hope the Omega enthusiasts enjoy the photographs and also agree, that I have (pardon the pun) won a watch on this purchase .
PS it is not the original leather strap, however upon winding, this little watch keeps excellent time 😁
