Omega 2324-9 £200

Hello all -

Offered FS a 1940s Omega Ref 2324-9, featuring the venerable 30T2 SC movement (indicating central seconds). A few things stand out - the stainless steel case measures 35mm without crown, and the slim bezel means the dial appears quite large, so the watch has presence even on a larger wrist such as mine (7 1/4 inch for reference). As you can see, the dial has plenty of wear, but also character: I like the faded Arabic numerals, and the syringe hands appear to have original lume which has aged to a lovely colour. Together with the blued seconds hand, it has a striking military look. I believe the crown is original, and the crystal is domed acrylic The lug width is 18mm with drilled lug holes, snap on case. The movement is running but I can't vouch for its service history or accuracy, so a future service is recommended. Please note the strap pictured is not included in the sale, I choose it for the pics as the colour compliments the hands very well.
Do let me know if you have any questions - postage will be included for a UK sale, asking £300.

Thanks OF for the space and for your interest - cheers, Dan

Bump and price reduction

Thanks @gatorcpa - I appreciate your comments. Yes the crown looks correct and hands are rather special. One the larger size for its time as well - when I took the photos for the listing I did wonder why I was selling it!

These nipple or mushroom crowns I always save if I ever come across them! Very hard to get hold of when they've been replaced with generic, I'm surprised this hasn't sold already... bargain!

Now sold - as ever, thanks OF for the space and for all those who got in touch and commented

quite sad i missed this...

Not as much as I will!
