Hello lovely people.
My cousin collects antiques and other memorabilia. Knowing I share this interest in vintage stuff he frequently shows me when he acquires something. Yesterday being our Independence Day, he showed me a bunch of news papers he had collected that covered the actual news.A95358D6-2986-4C41-967E-0335EDD3DC0B.jpeg
One of the papers, the statesman had this omega ad which caught my attention.
I was wondering if some can point out the model. I am sure I have seen this model in forum itself.

On a lighter note, case cover can’t be opened but I am pretty sure of the Model year 15th August 1947 to be exact.:D

These pictures are from the Internet as they are clearer, I have posted a pic of the actual newspaper in another post in the general discussion’s thread.

Good eye, I wondered that myself. Quite stylish for a late 1940s strap. I assume it was leather. The closest example I could find was this groovy strap from the 1960s:

Not quite the same thing though...
