I've decided to slim down the collection and let someone else take over care for my all original Ranchero 2990 (with sub-dial). It was SERVICED a year ago by my local independent Omega certified watchmaker. So YES, the watch is running exceptionally well and keeps good time. There is a shallow personal "engraving" etched on the caseback. The dial is all original and has never been touched up. The crystal is a accurate and correct replacement but it does NOT have the Omega logo in the center. The 158XXXXX serial number on the 267 movement dates this watch's production to1958. The 36mm steel case is in great shape, it's been polished, but not recently and the lug corners are still sharp. I recently ordered an Omega Archive Extract that will accompany the watch. Included in the price are paypal fees, USPS insured shipping (CONTINUOUS USA), the original copy of the Omega Archive Extract and folder and my collection of 18mm straps that add different personalities to the Ranchero. Included (see photo) are a black Nato, black Perlon, black genuine leather, brown Hadley Romano leather, etc....The Ranchero will come as photographed on a Vintage brown leather Crown & Buckle (black label) strap. I will even include a lug spring tool for your convenience so you don't have to dig around in your drawer. Photos: PRICE: $4850 Returns are granted if the Ranchero arrives and it is not as described or depicted in photos and I insured return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I have some positive feedback here, on WUS and on TRF as "Juggernaut", not to mention a 100% feedback rating on ebay as "Beetledan" Thank you for looking.
Incredible watch. If you compare this to a 1016 I'd say it represents a huge value from a price perspective with even more exclusivity. Wish I was in a position to buy. I'll say the customary GLWS, but something tells me you won't need any.
