A c.1968 stainless steel manually wound Omega model 135.041, tonneau case central sweep seconds wristwatch.

This Omega model Reference 135.041 which was first introduced by Omega in 1968 is unusual in the fact that it is rare to find on the original Fixo-Flex expander bracelet which was an option from Omega at the time! The steel tonneau shaped case has a polished finish and compliments the sheen finish of the deep aubergine/blue dial variant, which you don’t often see. The dial is in excellent condition with a bright finish and has wide baton markers with with black inserts to their centres.
