·Hey,
wanted to share with you my recent eBay snap, a ref 2495-17 from 1950 that just arrived.
I was a bit suspicious before because the pictures on the offer were not so good (texture of the dial was not visible) and feared it might be a re-dial. In particular because I did not find another model with black dots above the hour indicators. I was still bidding because it came from a professional seller With a right of withdrawal.
Having it in hand now it looks all original and nicely patinated in my view. Any counter opinions?
Does anyone know how the structure is called? It's like honeycomb with a twist. IMO it's beautiful
Lugs look nice and sharp as well for a 1950 watch IMO.
Another question: did the original acrylic glass for this model have an Omega logo etching? The glass of this watch does not have but I looked for the original replacement glass (must be 062PN1064) and this does not seem to have the logo as well ( https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brand-New-...528795?hash=item283c6dec9b:g:qg4AAOSw4gNZid~l ) or this glass is not original as wel 😎
Best, Thomas
