Omega 60.8 Chronometer

A very special watch - only 88 were made.

A description appears on page 174 of ‘A Journey Through Time’. There is also an interesting description with the most beautiful images by Steve G in 2007:

I have owned the watch for several years (about 10 years) but it is no longer in the area which particularly interests me.

I am asking 7,800 Euros (or equivalent in other currencies).

The watch is in beautiful, original condition. It comes with a copy of the Neuchâtel ‘Bulletin de Marche’ from 1935 and two certificates of competition success from Neuchâtel Observatory competitions in 1933 and 1934.

There is also a lovely stand - but I don’t know whether this was original because I don’t think Omega made stands - and would not have done for a competition watch. Regardless, it is a lovely stand.

As you see, the movement number of the watch is 7049453.

Shipping arranged mutually.

If you are interested, please PM me for further details.

Thank you Jim. Regarding the blued hand mounted on the balance staff (Steve G) - I don't know! I have not seen it on any other 60.8, but maybe there were. Somebody might just come along to explain!

As can be seen, there are front and rear bezels/crystals. I offer the following as a follow-up, showing the dial and movement with the bezels removed.
