Charismatic Vintage Omega Sub-Seconds With Beautiful Naturally Patina Dial circa 1930s

Omega watches have a rich and illustrious history that spans over 170 years. Founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Omega quickly established itself as a leading watch manufacturer. In 1894, they introduced the world's first mass-produced wristwatch calibre, the Omega 19-Ligne. This innovation marked a turning point for the company and solidified its reputation for precision and quality.

What's on Offer

We love this watch, the natural ageing process has taken hold of the dial and created a stunningly even patina giving the watch a beautiful tropical appeal. The dial design is quite reminiscent of the military watches of the same time with its bold Arabic numerals, outer minute track, string hands and recessed counter at 6 o'clock. 

You will simply never find another watch like this as the way watches age is completely individual and dependent on outside factors such as climate. The dial is encapsulated underneath shatterproof Plexiglas and encased in a stainless steel case with minimal scratches and blemishes.

The case is small-sized at 30mm but due to its slimline bezel, it wears much larger on the wrist. Paired with an aged vintage leather strap in chocolate to compliment the dial, this watch has simply beautiful vintage appeal - a joy to those of us that appreciate the effects of time on such pieces!
