Description from the seller
A Rare Golden Grail: Forged in Solid Gold, Omega Seamaster – Ref. G 6518 – "Bumper" Automatic
This is a stunning survival of the "Golden Era," where Swiss mechanical perfection met the height of American jewelry craftsmanship.
The Collector’s Edge:
• The Mechanical Heartbeat: Beating inside is the legendary Omega Caliber 351 "Bumper" Automatic. Collectors prize the unique, tactile sensation of the rotor bouncing between springs—a rhythmic reminder of vintage engineering at its finest.
• The Epic Aesthetic: The Professionally Refurbished Deep Black Gilt Dial offers a breathtaking contrast against the solid gold case. Its golden Arabic numerals and arrow-head markers catch the light with a depth that is both dramatic and timeless.
• Authentic Details: Every element remains true to its prestige, from the signed Omega crown to the Omega-signed buckle, ensuring a complete and high-integrity presentation.
• Provenance: With the serial number dating it to approximately 1947-1950, this watch captures the very moment the Seamaster legend began.
Why Bid on This Masterpiece?
The Ref. G 6518 is widely considered the standard of excellence for American Omega gold dress watches of its period. Its 14K solid gold construction provides enduring value, while the striking black-and-gold visual harmony makes it the undisputed star of any collection or auction.
Condition:
The movement is clean and reflects the high standards of Swiss precision. The case retains its sharp, elegant vintage lines, and the refurbished dial ensures the watch looks as magnificent today as it did seventy years ago.
Step into history and secure a piece of Omega's golden legacy. Happy bidding!
