CONDITION
If we were to provide a list of most searched for terms on this site they would probably include the words men’s, manual wind, stainless steel and Omega in the top ten. But as this watch is not perfect it is still at the lower end of the price bracket, meaning someone will get a great value for money watch. So let’s start with the negative points. The case has various marks and dings, but on the upside has never been polished. The other main negative is the patina on the dial, but a plus is the original hands – even if they are faded. The copper tone movement, calibre 601, is a treat for the eyes and hands when you wind it and these earlier movements are generally preferred to the later 1000 series. The crown is the signed original with the Ω logo, but the crystal has been replaced with a non signed item. The leather strap is new, and could be swapped for a different colour if preferred.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
