Description from the seller

JUMBO Omega Automatic Bumper – Elegant Vintage 18K Gold Timepiece – Aragno Lugs

Up for auction is a magnificent Omega Automatic Bumper wristwatch, a truly timeless and collectible vintage piece finished in luxurious 18-carat gold plating. This classic Omega is striking to the eye and exceptional in feel. A watch that conveys both elegance and historical horological significance.

This model features a 38 mm case size (excluding crown), enhanced by its highly distinctive Aragno-style lugs — an uncommon and desirable detail that adds sculptural beauty and elevates the watch’s presence on the wrist. These elegant, elongated lugs make this piece especially appealing to vintage collectors.

The genuine bumper automatic movement inside is a hallmark of Omega’s mid-20th-century craftsmanship. Unlike later full-rotor automatics, the bumper movement winds as a weighted rotor swings back and forth, providing a satisfying mechanical feel on the wrist. This design was mainly produced in the late 1940s and early 1950s and is cherished for its reliability and charm.

The dial is a standout feature: warm patina, rich texture, and a beautifully aged surface that catches the light with refinement. Combined with its classic hour markers and original hands, it stands as an excellent example of Omega’s vintage design language, highly appreciated for its balanced layout and natural aging.

Additional details:
The crown is not original.
Based on case construction and movement type, this Omega is likely from the early 1950s era.
Fitted with a brand-new genuine crocodile leather strap by Festina, elegant and ready to wear.
Features the rare and sophisticated Aragno lugs, adding strong collector appeal.

Condition & Function
This vintage timepiece operates with the classic bumper automatic winding system and keeps time in accordance with expectations for watches of this age. The 18k gold-plated case and dial show charming vintage patina, contributing to its unique character.
