Unreferenced french 1953 lady. Wonderfully shallow crystal may stay, warts’n’all.

This rose gold filled Omega jumbo hasn’t seen the light of day for a long time. Calibre 265, manual wind, I’m the second owner. The serial number dates it circa 1954. This watch was the previous owner’s lucky watch. He survived a helicopter crash in the 1970s, with this watch on his wrist! New Buffalo hide padded strap. I have a low profile lentille crystal on order for it.

Wasn’t going to post as I’m still wearing captain cook but I’m bored waiting on someone.

That dial in the sunlight
How are you liking that I am hearing a lot of noise and positive comments from new owners on Reddit I think those are getting a lot of attention. Have yet to see one IRL

Just returned from the spa; needed a bit of TLC and is now running like a (Seamaster) Pro!

I’m loving it. I picked it up secondhand but barely used and at a nice discount. It wears very comfortably on my 7.25” wrist. I think it looks fun and funky. Nothing to complain about at all from me.

Latest acquisition, just back from my watchmaker today after a service, had the winding post sub plate replaced and one winding gear as part of its service, perfect cosmetic condition. ( A few raindrops in the photo) no marks or damage original Omega lens was totally unblemished.

I was lucky to pay just $5.00 for it, my watchmaker was gobsmacked at the price 😁 especially as it was in great working condition when I bought it.

It must have performed very well on his timegrapher as his parting comment was that it should keep perfect time ( He normally only tells me when they are inconsistent).
