    SOLD is this very nice manual wound Omega in stainless steel from 1950. This is the first issue of the workhorse reference 2639, which was made in at least 16 revisions.

    Measures 36 mm excluding the crown. Original crown to this watch. Worn on top but easy to wind and to set time with.

    Unpolished case in excellent vintage condition. The dial is as good as flawless too, very good original condition, only some ageing to the radium numerals. Factory original dial, shiny and blank as a piano! The dial is as good as it present itself in the pictures.

    The movement runs good and keeps good time. It was recently overhauled by my watchmaker. Does it need service? No, not in my opinion. But be your own judge in that matter. It has not been given an Archer or STS class service.....

    I would like to have USD 720, shipping, registered mail, fully insured, with the Swedish post included. I and the watch are located within the EU.

    Feel free to return the watch on my expense, if it doesn´t match my description in text and/ or pictures, and if the deviation is material.
