Gents Omega wrist watch, 1950
Gents Omega wrist watch, 1950.
The watch has a 15-jewel calibre 265 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and the serial number 12,165,722 dates it back to 1950.
The watch measures 33mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is gold plated with a thick 80 microns of plate. It is in good condition with just light marking, nothing serious at all. The inside of the case back has the Omega logo, and the name Central Watch Case Company.
Interestingly, the Central Watch Case Company (Fabrique de Boites La Centrale SA) of Switzerland were based in the former Brandt Brothers factory in rue de Boujean.
The case reference is 2512-2 which is correct for the calibre 265 movement.
Signed Omega winding crown.
The lens looks good to the naked eye. If viewed closely, there is a light 5mm scratch.
The signed dial has its original dauphine shaped hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers. There is some darkening and light marking across the dial.
The watch comes on a vintage rolled gold Montal beads of rice style bracelet which fits a 20cm wrist when the clasp is on its largest setting. General light surface marking to the clasp.
If preferred, we can fit a leather strap instead of the bracelet.
The watch comes in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE.
Please contact us for international shipping prices.
The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund.
Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable.
All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.
Credit / debit card purchases can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the \'Buy Securely\' button on each listing page.
We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
