This is a nice vintage Omega "bumper" automatic, circa 1947-1949. This was my grandfather's watch. When I got it, it wasn't working, so I sent it to a reputable vintage watch repair facility. They repaired and serviced the movement, and had the dial redone. They also polished the case and replaced the strap with the one pictured.
Details:
Case: Solid 14K yellow Gold; 32mm wide x 37mm lug to lug, professionally polished, signs of wear: a few scratches and dents.
Dial: restored by qualified re-dial artist.
Hands: Yellow Gold-colored Dauphine; all original.
The strap is not genuine Omega. It is a Speidel genuine crocodile, from when they had their higher end bands made in Europe. The buckle is genuine Omega. The case is solid 14K gold; please see photo of the inside of the case back (photo taken prior to servicing). Also - see photo of actual movement inside of this watch (also taken prior to servicing). It's a model G6518, Serial #T924868. The watch can be dated by the serial # on the movement, which dates the watch to 1947-1949. As far as the movement type, it's a "bumper", and, depending on the year of manufacture, may be either a 28.10RA PC, or a 350 Calibre. The case is in nice condition, except for the lugs, which have been damaged by a stretch band that was on the watch when I received it. The watch does feel secure on the current strap, and runs very well - last time I checked, it was gaining 10 seconds per day.
I have bought and sold watches here on WUS, and have good feedback here. I am also an established buyer/seller on eBay (handle: bellbrass), with over 750 transactions, and 100% good feedback. This will be shipped via USPS Insured Priority Mail, with signature required.
