With no other name like Seamaster or Geneve, this men’s watch had enough about it to stand on its own.  Model reference 14753.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

From the serial number on the movement we can accurately date this watch to being made in 1961.  A gold version of the 14753 features here on Omega’s own website.

CONDITION

Inside the 34mm, stainless steel case of this Omega we can find their calibre 552.  This is a 24 jewel automatic movement without calendar (that would be the calibre 565 from the same family of design.)  One thing this movement has that you rarely see on obtainable watches is a swan neck fine adjustment on the balance – a simple and elegant way of fine tuning the time keeping performance.  The dial has applied hour marker in gold finish to match the hands.  There are a few marks on the dial and near those hour markers, and the hands have some pitting, but everything looks all original and we would expect a few marks on a 60+ year old watch.  The leather strap is new, and could be swapped for a different colour if preferred.  The gold plated Omega buckle has been transferred to the new strap – this buckle does show some wear, but it is still perfectly serviceable and the wear does show it is not a modern copy but an older genuine Omega part.

This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
