    Uncommon, yes, they were rarely this big in the 30s/40s.

    This would appear to have a cal 26.5 movement.

    Not seen this one before either.

    Very uncommon watch that looks correct to me - particularly attractive because of the interesting dial design which was subsequently adapted with various modifications in the later 30mm Rg chronometre range. Omega did make a few of these jumbo watches and difficult to place a value on them since there are so few comparables.

    Nice looking example, but in the not now group for me.

    That's actually a reasonable price for that watch which is rare not just uncommon - I strongly considered bidding for it but as always, you prioritize things. For the manual wind omega specialists, this is a rare specimen and one to go for and would rightfully be called "rare as hen's teeth."

    I've added the seller's description and full photos for archival purposes in case someone else is searching for information on a 37mm or 38mm Cal 26.5 T2
