·Up for sale is my Omega Marine Standard, a piece of Omega history 
This watch has clearly been worn and appreciated over the decades, and are now looking for its new owner.
Details:
The stepped case shows signs of wear consistent with a watch of this era, including scratches and minor dings, but it remains unpolished to preserve its original lines.
The movement is running suprisingly well and keeps time. In any case I would recommend a service if you plan on wearing it regularly, as is typical with vintage pieces.
The acrylic crystal has some scratches, but they don’t significantly detract from the watch's overall appearance.
The watch comes with a new leather strap, which, although not original, is in keeping with the vintage look of the watch.
History: The Omega Marine was one of the first wristwatches designed with water resistance in mind, making this not just a beautiful piece but a significant one in the history of horology. The Marine Standard is a successor to the original Marine, retaining the rectangular case shape that was so iconic in its time.
I bought the watch through auction in a lot with other watches, from the grandchild of the original owner.
Price: 1000EUR - I’m open to reasonable offers.
The price includes shipping worldwide.
Shipping: Standard worldwide shipping included. I’ll ensure it’s well-packaged and shipped with tracking and insurance.
References/Reviews: I have many good references from Norwegian watch forums, as well as a couple on Omegaforums, and intend to continue with that.
Please feel free to ask any questions or request additional photos. I want you to feel confident in what you’re buying, so I’m happy to provide any information you need.
Thanks for looking!
