Description from the seller

Now available at auction from Second Vintage

This is a quintessential example of Omega's refined watchmaking from the late 1950s, showcasing the brand's ability to create timeless dress watches with robust engineering. Featuring the renowned "beefy lug" case design and powered by the legendary Caliber 284 movement, this timepiece represents the golden era of Omega's manual wind production. Its clean aesthetic and high-grade finishing make it a sophisticated choice for collectors who appreciate the purity of vintage Swiss design.

Brand: Omega
Reference Number: 2910-9 SC
Serial Number: 16846537
Movement: Omega Caliber 284 Manual Wind
Dial: Silver satin with applied indices
Case Size: 34 mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Stainless Steel
Production Year: 1958
Condition: Good vintage condition. The watch shows normal vintage wear with visible marks and scratches on the case and caseback. The dial remains remarkably clean and attractive. The movement is functioning well, showing -15s to -18s/day on the timegrapher which indicates reliable vintage performance.

Dial and Hands
The watch features a sophisticated silver satin dial that has preserved beautifully over time. It is adorned with applied silver faceted arrow indices and a double marker at the 12 o'clock position. The applied Omega logo and script are crisp. The polished silver Dauphine hands are in excellent condition, complemented by a central sweep seconds hand. The overall presentation of the face is bright and legible.

Case and Crystal
The stainless steel case features the desirable thick or "beefy" lugs that give the 34mm diameter a substantial presence on the wrist. The case retains its original lines but displays visible surface scratches and handling marks consistent with its age, particularly on the polished bezel and lugs. The screw-down caseback shows distinct scratches from past opening attempts but remains structurally sound. The watch is fitted with an original Omega-signed crown featuring the clover logo. The acrylic crystal is clear with minimal signs of wear.

Movement
Powering this timepiece is the highly regarding Omega Caliber 284, a copper-finished manual wind movement with 17 jewels. This caliber is a direct descendant of the famous 30mm movement family, known for its exceptional stability and ease of service. The movement is clean and visually appealing. Timegrapher testing shows a rate of -15s to -18s/day, which is a solid result for a watch of this vintage, indicating the mechanism is healthy and running within vintage tolerances.

Strap
The watch is fitted with a brown leather strap featuring an alligator grain pattern and matching brown stitching. It is paired with a silver-tone pin buckle. The strap is in good condition, soft and ready for wear, complementing the vintage character of the dial perfectly.

Condition
This piece is in good vintage condition. While the steel case shows honest signs of a life well-lived with various surface marks, the dial serves as the highlight, remaining exceptionally clean and free of heavy spotting or damage. The movement is clean and reliable. It is a very honest and presentable example of a classic 1950s Omega.

Dimensions
The case measures 34 mm in diameter excluding the winding crown. With the substantial lug design, the watch wears slightly larger than its dimensions suggest, offering a classic dress watch profile suitable for various wrist sizes.

Remarks
Reference 2910 is a favorite among vintage Omega enthusiasts due to its robust case architecture and the reliability of the Caliber 284. Finding one with such a clean, well-preserved dial is becoming increasingly difficult. This is a versatile timepiece that transitions effortlessly between casual and formal settings.

History
Produced in 1958, this watch hails from a significant period in Omega's history, just following the brand's centenary. The Caliber 284 utilized here is part of the "30mm" family of movements, which were famously used in military watches and chronometer competitions due to their large balance wheels and precision. These movements are widely considered some of the finest manual-wind calibers ever mass-produced by the Swiss industry.
