Its supremely elegant 18K white gold case is Omega factory set with brilliant diamonds and is beautifully complement by its silver solid dial, giving the watch a very monochrome black tie motif.
The watch itself is perfect, unworn new-old-stock with its original sticker still on the back. The only handling wear is the slightest bit on the side where the case is designed to be opened and comes from the offering house where we bought it from opening the case. The side of one lug has the slightest hairline from handling. Otherwise it is perfect NOS.
The band and buckle are correct for the watch - diamond Omegas from the period usually came with these black suede bands. The cool 18K white gold signed Omega buckle is stamped 18K on both the clasp and the tongue itself which is a nice touch.
The band and buckle show fairly light wear... we wonder if perhaps the owner wore them a bit on a new watch before they were installed on this one for sale as the watch itself has clearly never been worn or polished.
It's a true time capsule Omega.
Powering it is its Omega caliber cal. 302 handwound movement, which has never been serviced since leaving the factory. It is still running very true, although a servicing is recommended if it is to be used regularly. Please inquire if you would like our Master Watchmaker to perform the work.
Accompanying the watch is its original red Omega box.
Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.
