Can you have it opened and post a pic of inside caseback? I think this would give to you some additional infos.

Here are the pics... so definitely a Dennison case, and the number from the lug, 2467 is repeated on caseback as well as what I assume is a Dennison reference? Love the watch, was wearing it again yesterday, but really just a bit small for me at 33.5mm... going to find a nice brightly coloured strap and let my wife wear it more.

13322 is the dennison reference. I have also a dennison cased 30T2PC watch, but its 9k gold case, hallmarked birmingham, uk for 1947. My case also has 151141 stamped on it

The serial is close to yours, being 10.96 mln

Unfortunately, its a redial

Sorry no pictures, its in a bank safe in the uk still

A beautiful example there, loving the blued sub seconds hand and dagger(?) hands!

My first Omega and my first post on OF. Hello everyone! I live in Norway and don't know much about watches. Stumbled over this watch on a web marketplace and fell in love with it. Don't know much about its history, just that it was serviced a couple of years ago and had the crown replaced. Case back says 2505-11, don't know if that's correct. Unfortunately the pictures doesn't really show how the color of the dial and hands change with changing light. I think it's really beautiful.

Welcome to OF. What a great looking watch! The serial number on the movement indicates a production date of 1949. I am certain that members with knowledge of the model will be weighing in soon. Cheers!

This a new one in my collection 😀

An uncommon reference, ref. 2705, cal. 266 from ca. 1954, with patina and teardrop lugs 😀

Hi Thomas,

congrats on a very nice catch.
this seems to be a larger one - what is the diameter?

thanks
