Most elegant of the Mid-Century Modern ladies vintage Omega watches called Cocktail Watches at the time during the 1940s/50s. The interesting 14K white gold-filled case is shaped as an octagon and the lugs have quite a flair. Paired perfectly with a period-correct old stock JB Champion USA bracelet that really complements it with a very stylish double snake design, some stretch links and a safety clasp. Features an Omega hand-wound movement. The watch winds, sets, runs and keeps time, but has not been serviced.
Measures 17mm across, not counting the crown, and 27mm from the top lug tip to the bottom lug tip. Acrylic crystal with diamond pattern inset. Original Omega signed crown. Case is marked 14K White Gold-Filled. The bracelet has some spring-loaded links near the clasp to keep the tension on your wrist just right. It will fit a wrist size up to 6 1/2 inches (16.5mm) and will size down shorter easily by removing links near the clasp. It has a double-locking clasp, plus a safety chain, to keep your watch secure.
Keep in mind we shoot our photos at 2.5X to 5X magnified, so macro photos exaggerate tiny features that won't stand out as much in person. What you mostly see in macro pictures are reflections, not flaws.
This Omega would cost you several hundred dollars more if bought in a bricks and mortar retail watch shop. Buying here is a bargain, plus we offer you a 50% discount on other ladies bands for this watch bought at the same time.
