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.

 

A beautiful timepiece Tom, unfortunately beyond the limits of my financial responsibility but good luck with the sale.

I noticed the one that SteveG describes is fitted with a small blued hand mounted to the balance staff (amplitude indicator?).
Do you know if this was a special conversion for the competitions or just a one-off.

 

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.
