This watch is the oldest wristwatch in my collection that is almost NOS. It wasn´t sold due to a broken glas. There is also a promotionlabel that belongs to it. It was made ca 1936. Caliber T17 with 60 hour....

Very beautiful, a real time capsule and the sharp lines of the case are just stunning.

I admit, when I read "NOS", my first thought was "yeah, right", everything is NOS, especially if it's on ebay. That however, truly is an amazing piece. Where did you get it?

I bought it from an old watchmakers shop many years ago.

Your Omega is aesthetically nice and of course in amazing condition. What are the width, length and thickness measurements? I really like the shape of the hands; very similar to the hands on my inherited 1944 Bulova watch from my grandfather which lead to my vintage watch interest.

This one is small by today’s standards at25mm wide x 35mm lug to lug tip x 9mm thick.

It's beautiful, it's a mess for the glass...

I wonder if the glass can be repaired with techniques similar to that when fixing a car winshield (by injecting a resin).

I can of course change the broken glass to a new one but as written above, its "a real time capsule" and the broken glass was the reason that it was never sold. I think I let it be as it is...

A nice Bulova above😀
