Omega

Overview

This is an attractive early-style Omega mechanical pocket watch featuring a classic white dial with black Arabic numerals, a distinctive red 12, and a subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock. The dial is signed AUG. LJUNGQVIST STOCKHOLM IMPORT, giving the watch an interesting connection to the Swedish retail market. Inside the case are Omega markings, a 0.900 silver fineness mark and a case number, while the mechanical movement is also signed OMEGA. The watch is offered together with a pocket-watch chain and a vintage presentation box bearing a Malmö jeweller’s marking, creating a particularly appealing period display set.
The strongest feature of this lot is the combination of the red 12 Omega pocket watch, Swedish retailer-signed dial, vintage box and chain.
