CONDITION
In terms of condition, this watch presents itself very well for a piece dating back to 1958. The original dial shows light patina consistent with its age, adding character without detracting from legibility or overall appearance. The stainless steel case remains in good condition, having been lightly polished in the past, and displays normal signs of wear that are to be expected from a vintage watch of this era. The original steel crown, signed with the Omega logo, is still present. The plexiglass crystal is in good condition, free from scratches; while it is most likely original (it is not signed).
The Omega calibre 284 movement (serial number 16276xxx) has been fully ensuring reliable performance. We offer a 12-month warranty on the proper functioning of the movement. The watch is fitted with a brand new genuine leather strap by Happel, paired with a generic stainless steel buckle (not Omega).
