    Acquired 2017; serviced by my local watchmaker, and keeping good time. Crown is a modern reproduction of the original (sourced in Belgium), and the minute hand was harvested from another 2292.

    Selling for $1750 net. Please contact me with any questions. The watch and myself are located in the US.

    Have a free bump from me. I am already a proud owner / I am very happy with mine - 78 years and still ticking on. These should get more love. There is some good info on this old thread for any buyers...

    https://omegaforums.net/threads/circa-1943-raf-issue-omega.60389/

    I know it won’t win an Oscar and this is completely not for profit / labour or love but I made this video based around my CK2292/UK2292 with alloy case which I think also has some good information (I took the thumbnail for the Lancaster which is one of my better photo efforts :0)

    My watch is 1942/43.

    Gosh, now I'm not sure about letting it go!

    :)

    The only reason for putting this up is that I have another military Omega (ref 2179). Military isn't a focus of my collecting, so it is a redundancy of sorts. With ~ thirty Omegas altogether in my possession I've reached a saturation point, and feel a need to part with duplicates before taking on more. Same goes for the Seamaster chronometer - there's a comparable '58 2852 Connie in the safe alongside it, rendering the '58 2989 redundant as well.

    Thanks a mil for sharing the video clip, not to mention the bump.

    Gratefully,

    Art
