About This Watch

Vintage. No box or papers. 

A lovely Art Deco style watch by Omega with the serial numbers on the movement dating this watch to around 1936. 

It is noteworthy that the movement in this watch, the barrel-shaped Calibre T17 was launched in 1934 and designed by Charles Perregaux. The T 17 denotes the maximum width of the movement at 17mm x 24.5mm long. It has an unusually long power reserve of 60 hours when fully wound and was unrivalled until 2006 when Omega created the Calibre 8500. Over 167,000 of this movement were made ending in 1943.

There is no incabloc or anti-shock to the balance so please do not ever drop this watch & we do not guarantee that this watch works for over 40hrs as the watch is over 80 yrs old and mainspring would've been changed over the decades.

Watch is in very good condition with some old wear marks on the case but nothing serious and the dust-cover/anti-magnetic movement cover is intact which is a rare find.

*6% GST is included in the advertised price for sales in Malaysia only & discount will be given for cash payment.
