This mildly interesting (because hinged caseback) early Compur sold yesterday on CW. No clue what it sold for

Had this case not been polished to oblivion, it would have commanded a higher result.

Agreed but like the dial

As the owner of a sharp case and a cream dial, I might have bought this just for that dial.

UG you think? Wrong: Omega. https://www.lacasadellorologio.it/e...torno-in-corona-calibro-base-omega-333-omega/

Really intruiging to see how a lot of high end chrono's in the 1930's looked very similar

Nice.
Not surprising as a lot of brands used the same dial makers.
Similiar impression for me with 60’s chronos (Omega 105.005 and Heuer 2445?)
70s Sinn, Heuer, Orfina etc. chronos.
Best

We have discussed these dials before. This time in a fancy case: https://www.liveauctioneers.com/ite...-18k-gold-manual-wind-wristwatch-11293-c-1942

IMHO the pinnacle of 1930's UG: https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auc...ograph-wristwatch?locale=en&cmp=agg7000200568

Agreed and 38mm too. A bit of a shame about the soft case though.

Most of the time I like your posts here - not in this case as I saw it before already😉


It's a very desirable piece

Agreed. On both the protrusion on the case which connect with the lugs has ridges in it. The one I posted (as well as the one with serial 583.584 - see https://omegaforums.net/threads/serials-2-consecutive-numbers.147786/page-3#post-2265287) don’t have that. As always: nothing UG is straight forward

Didn’t notice the Ref was cut off. 2041 is the 1938 ref in the catalogue

Very nice 1930's one somewhere in France at an auction (may be a redial btw)
