·Hi all,
I recently came into possession of an Omega pocket watch. It’s a really nice piece that caught my eye right at the start. Unfortunately it just is a nice watch now collecting dust that I don’t feel a strong connection and have decided it would be best for this amazing look piece to go to someone who will appreciate it more.
Maker: Omega
Production: Case and movement production dates typically do not match and could be years apart. Likewise this watch’s production ranges likely between 1916-1919.
Movement: 19 Ligne (15 Jewels)
Bi-metallic, temperature compensating balance wheel, blued steel Breguet (overcoil) hairspring.
I was informed while this is not a luxury grade version of this movement, it is still above average.
Cons: Watch sporadically allows winding or wont wind and/or set time, Likewise needs someone to further evaluate.
Missing a plate screw.
Dial: 12-hour enamel with Breguet-style numerals
Great condition for its age.
Believe to be original!
Hands: Amazing blued steel squared style hands
I have not seen another set like these
Case: Coin Silver (.900)
This watch most likely was sold in Germany due to the presence of the “Halbmond und Reichskrone” symbol (Crown in the crescent). This symbol is a German hallmark requirement for silver items sold in that country.
Overall the watch appears to be in very good condition beyond moment concerns stated previously.
Price: $750, OBO US shipping included.
Please message me to discuss non US shipping options.
References: OF references available as buyer, this is my first sale on OF.
please see photos or ask questions as needed.
Watch and I are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
