Description from the seller
Omega – Manual Wind – Calibre 284 – Ref. 2910-1 SC – Stainless Steel – Men – 1950s
Offered for sale is a classic vintage Omega men’s wristwatch featuring the highly respected Omega calibre 284 manual-wind movement, housed in a stainless steel case with reference 2910-1 SC. This is a well-preserved and elegant example of mid-century Omega watchmaking, combining mechanical reliability with timeless design.
⸻
Dial & Hands
The watch features a professionally restored (revised) black / charcoal dial, carefully repainted to a high standard. The surface has a refined matte texture that suits the period design very well.
Dial markings:
• Applied Omega logo
• Printed OMEGA
• SWISS MADE at 6 o’clock
The repainted dial is fitted with applied gold-tone baton hour markers and gold dauphine-style hands, offering excellent contrast and legibility.
As expected for a vintage watch, very minor age-related traces may be present, which are visible only upon close inspection. Please review all photos carefully.
⸻
Case
• Material: Stainless steel
• Reference: 2910-1 SC
• Case type: Classic round case with elegant curved lugs
• Condition: Very good overall condition for its age
The case has been lightly and professionally polished in the past. Importantly, it retains sharp lines and well-defined edges, giving the watch a strong and attractive wrist presence.
Minor signs of age and use are present, consistent with a genuine vintage timepiece.
Caseback interior markings:
• Omega Watch Co (triangle logo)
• FAB. SUISSE
• SWISS MADE
• ACIER INOXYDABLE
• Reference: 2910-1 SC
⸻
Movement
• Calibre: Omega 284
• Type: Manual wind
• Jewels: 17
• Movement serial number: 15376577
The Omega calibre 284 is a well-known and robust manual movement from the 1950s, appreciated by collectors for its reliability and serviceability.
The movement is original, clean, and running well. Timekeeping is very good for a vintage mechanical watch, though minor daily deviation should be expected due to age.
⸻
Strap & Buckle
• Strap: Aftermarket genuine leather strap (green, lizard-style texture)
• Buckle: Aftermarket stainless steel buckle
The strap and buckle are not original Omega, clearly stated for full transparency.
⸻
Overall Condition
Visually, the watch is in excellent condition for its age. The combination of the restored dial, sharp case lines, and classic proportions results in a very elegant and eye-catching vintage Omega.
Please note:
• This is a vintage watch
• Minor age-related imperfections may be present
• All photos form an essential part of the description and should be examined carefully
⸻
Important Notes
