·Rare Classic stainless steel circa 1943. Functioning perfectly.
This beautiful old watch has flared lugs reminiscent of a Constellation. Case No. 2374 Case diameter 35mm not including the crown by 42mm lug to lug. Snap in caseback. Correct crown in excellent condition.
Original dial in 2 tone silver and off-white. 1940’s handsome style! The art deco dial variant has an inner track of railroad design with bold, military style numbers in luminous, trimmed in black. Original baton hands and smaller engine turned subdial with minute tick markers, evocative of 1940’s luxury design. It is an excellent dial with real character. It has a new bevelled glass crystal. Omega crown. Brushed caseback.
The early Omega 17j automatic bumper movement is a "pre-Constellation" movement. Serial No. Caliber 30.10. Only 146,200 pieces made. It’s great to feel the beautiful soft thud of the pivoted weight as you move. The unstressed movement runs at 19800 A/H, with a running reserve of 42 hours. Incabloc shock protection is provided. Not serviced while in my possession, however it runs, winds & sets smoothly and is keeping good time.
Comes with a new leather light brown band.
