Borrowing the text of the sale from the seller who originally sold this watch to me on OF. I am selling this Original RCAF Omega HA62 single- pusher Chronograph. These pieces were manufactured about 1962, and it is powered by the Rare Omega 2221 hacking movement, unique to the RCAF. Omega won the contract to supply Chronographs to the RCAF from 1960-62 although their pieces were issued for a number of years after. With the wholesale destruction of the RCAF timepieces due to radium 226 lume, there are only about 275 HA62 left in existence. Although the serial number was erased upon decommissioning, it is definitely an HA62 by the virtue of the case being 38mm, the Sterile RCAF dial, Omega 2221 Hacking movement and the inner caseback markings of 34/62. The dial is completely original and does show some degradation around the 9-10 o’clock positions, but I don’t think it detracts much as most of the original dial finish is present. The Original hands have been re-lumed to remove the radium 226. The Crown is Original and the Chronograph and Hacking features work crisply and she keeps good time. This watch has been serviced by Willie (former Sincere Singapore Head watchmaker) in Jul 2015 (although not water proof). Price reduced to SGD 9,088 net to me (free EMS shipping. FedEx/DHL will be additional at cost, bank fees and PayPal fee not included in the price). Payment preferred by Bank transfer. PayPal (add 4% for fees) is accepted with at least 200 posts or a couple of references provided. Also welcome face to face deal in Singapore. No Return unless the watch is found to be grossly misrepresented. Additional Information Why am I selling? -It doesn’t fit my interest in watch, I am into Universal, Zenith, VC and PP -This watch surely has seen plenty of time on the wrist of a jet fighter pilot in action but Military watch is just not a genre I am into. Condition disclosure: 1) case scratch between 3:30 to 4:30 2) dial edge minor deterioration between 5:30 to 6:30 3) dial edge deterioration between 9:00 to 10:00 4) small crystal ding just above no. 4 of 4 o’clock I will let the photos do the talking. Feel Free to PM me anytime. Ps: lug width is 20mm and thanks OF for the space
