Condition Report

Grade B – Good vintage condition, with visible signs of age and use.

The case displays surface scratches, small marks and wear around the bezel and lugs. The case back shows scratches and spotting, together with a personal monogram and the engraved date “1941”. This engraving is a feature of the watch and does not independently establish its production year.

The silver dial presents extensive spotting, discolouration and localised surface deterioration, including around the outer minute track. The hands and applied markers also show noticeable ageing and oxidation. The large seconds subdial retains its distinctive concentric texture, with some visible marks and staining.

The acrylic crystal and leather strap display traces of use. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an essential part of the condition description.

Water resistance has not been tested. Contact with water should therefore be avoided unless the watch is professionally assessed and pressure-tested.

Story & Heritage

The character of this Omega begins with its large subsidiary seconds display. Positioned at 6 o’clock, it occupies a generous part of the dial, creating a clear visual counterbalance to the Arabic numeral at 12. Fine concentric circles give the subdial depth, catching the light differently from the surrounding silver surface.

The remaining details are equally considered. Faceted markers alternate with applied numerals, while elongated, pointed hands bring a sense of proportion to the composition. A narrow bezel leaves the dial open and prominent within the compact 33 mm case.

Its manual-winding movement adds a daily ritual to ownership: winding the crown supplies the energy that powers the mechanical timekeeping. This simple interaction is part of the enduring attraction of a traditional vintage watch.

On the reverse, the engraved monogram and date provide a tangible reminder of an earlier owner, although their precise history remains unknown. Together with the visibly aged dial and restrained steel case, these details give this Omega an individual presence for a collector who appreciates watches bearing the traces of time.
