Hope to get some help to identify this Omega, which I believe is powered by cal 24.3SC (comparing pics vs ranftt). It is 36mm and the lugs are quite distinct in design. Serial 885xxxx would date it to 1938 I think. My collecting has been quite limited to 50s Seamasters so this one is new land for me. Was there a reference number on these 30s Omegas? If so, anyone that would know this one? Maybe some old ad or brochure showing the model? Many thanks in advance for input and support! Martin
Nice watch! The model name is Fagiolino. Here is a link to my post. https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-“fagiolino”-redial-or-not.89625/
Hi, Very nice one, It is a ref CK2015, 35mm. Here is a scan from a 1940 catalog : And mine, which says hello :
Hi, Interesting information. Where did you get the 'Fagiolino' name from? Is it a modern collector's nickname or is it an official Omega model name?
Yes @ConElPueblo I did buy it 2nd time around...not cheap but just liked it a lot...hard to find sensible priced pieces with this case style imo
I’ m not sure about the name. I think it’s a collectors nickname. I found this information somewhere in the internet, I guess it was some Italian watch forum where this model was named as “ Fagiolino”. Nothing else.
