For sale is this great example of an early Omega automatic with the cal. 28.10 RA SC.
This was Omega's first automatic movement, and R.A stands for Remontoir Automatique, SC for Seconde au Centre.

CASE: Unpolished stainless steel case, the original factory brushed parts are still well visible on the top of the lugs and on the side of the case.
The caseback has a superficial “crack” but it feels solid and also retains the original factory brushed finish.
Original crown with the skinny logo.

DIAL: original stunning two tone dial with homogeneous patina. The original radium lume is partially missing on the 7-8-9 numerals but it is barely noticeable when at the wrist.
Radium burn on the dial at 6:55, again visible only when the watch is tilted at a certain angle in some light conditions.

HANDS: one of the most attractive yellow-honey color hand-set i’ve ever seen. Original blued sweeping seconds hand.

MOVEMENT: cal. 28.10 RA, service history unknown, it winds smoothly and it is in working conditions, if you plan to wear it frequently i would suggest to have it checked by your watchmaker.

I’m asking 510Euro payment by Paypal or bankwire.

The watch is located in Italy, many references avaliable on request.

Thanks for looking!
