    Imagine you in the 50's, walking down the boulevard in your linnen suit, giving the ladies some mysterious glance from underneath the hat. When looking down on your wrist in this situation, what are you wearing?

    Probably something like this....

    This Omega is presented with a pretty uncommon silver looking dial with golden arabic numbers. I think the layout of the dial make it appears bigger than it actually is, oh and the condition is absolutely great. There are some small spots on the dial and truth to be told, it looks ten times worse then IRL, IRL you don't see it.

    The 80 micron gold capped case is in a nice honest condition. Some small marks here and there but overall it's really nice preserved and wont disappoint. 35mm width, 10mm of height and 18mm between the lugs.

    The automatic bumper is in great shape, my watchmaker put some new oil on some gears a couple of months back since it wasn't in any need of a service. It runs strong, keeps time as you would hope when wearing a watch. When writing this it's been going for 36h and still runs strong.

    As always, watch located in Sweden, within EU and will be shipped world wide.
    A couple of hundred references from here, national and international watch forums.


    Was $1300 shipped or best reasonable offer.

    Now $1100
