Mating beauty, class, craftsmanship and usefulness, the watch immediately stands out as a quality time piece to even the casual observer. With its beautiful deep blue dial, large hands and hour markers, and a calendar window at 3 o'clock its face possesses both a high degree of utility and style. It has our favorite dial design from the different versions for the model.
Powering the watch is Omega's upgraded caliber 1538 quartz movement with quick-setting hour for easy changing of the time zone and date. It has a domed sapphire crystal and screw down crown for deep water resistance.
The case measures 36mm in diameter without the crown and guards, 40mm with them.
In its pre-owned form, it's an excellent value, providing greater quality in design and execution and in attention to detail than is often found in watches in this under $2000 price range.
It has all its original parts and presents in gorgeous condition. Its case is mint, and its untouched dial is mint. Its bracelet also is mint with no stretch at all.
A Master Watchmaker has performed any needed servicing and installed a new battery. Photos of the inside available upon request.
For the finishing touch it has been meticulously detailed making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
