Omega 1611 Albatross Montreal

I finally found it.
I was evaluating buying a 32kz Contellation when I saw a post of this watch for sale. Almost perfect, single owner, serviced 6 years ago, no box or documents at a very good price.
The price was so good at first that I thought it might be a scam but the seller was only 200km away from me and had also listed the same watch on eBay with a 100% positive feedback account.
I know that many purists don't like this type of watch but for me this timepiece is a milestone in the history of Omega and watchmaking in general. It's a very large watch and I was a little scared with my small 16.8cm wrist. However, it is very comfortable and doesn't feel gigantic on the wrist.

How can I prevent damage to this watch other than keeping it away from direct sun heat /light and water? Should I leave the batteries inside and regularly plan to change them before they become exhausted?

Hi Claustro😉, nice watch indeed. Enjoy it.

Excellent purchase

Have one myself.
I make sure the batteries I install are not out of date and change them yearly

enjoy

Can you suggest to me the brand and type of batteries?

Varta 393

I personally use Renata SR48 (393) as it is Swiss made and Omega used product. But it doestn`t matter much😀

Congrats for your nice choice.
Mine says hello 😀.
