Omega 30T2 from 1940s

Dear forumers,

Firstly, let me thank you for all the useful information and knowledge on vintage Omega watches that I’ve learned here.

This is my very first post but I follow you from 2 years now.

I would like to ask you an estimation of a vintage Omega from 1940s that I own, bought few time ago on a street market. I’ve heavily searched on internet using reference and movement number but nothing came out. Then, I realised this might be considered a 30T2 model, as I found out it had different serials in both back case and movement. This has a 35/36 mm case diameter, not even sure it can be considered a “Jumbo” version.

Hope you could help me and shed some lights on this beautiful Omega model and make an estimation its current valuation. I’ve seen that Omega 30T2 watches price ranges a lot, from few hundred to 2,000 dollars.


Thanks in advance for all those who will help me.

Quite a few problems.....repainted dial . And not a good repaint. Omega sign, omega txt. The regulator points too far to the slow down direction. Could be the balance in there. So far, only a few hundred dollars.....

The hands appear mismatched to each other and the color looks odd. Have they been painted black or is it just the lighting?

it’s just the light I think, they are actually blue coloured.

I agree that from a collectibility standpoint, it probably isn't that valuable. From a functionality perspective, a longer, matching, leaf style minute hand and a service would turn this into a nice, wearable watch with a well-regarded manual movement. Most people you encounter day to day would see it as a pretty cool watch.
