Here is a stunning, all original Omega dress watch from 1959. The silver sunburst dial is in very fine condition, with a golden Omega logo and barely any marks. It has faceted twin golden bar hour markers at the poles and golden wedged strip hour markers in between. The golden baton hands are in very fine condition with a few marks visible under magnification.

The solid 18K gold bezel is in very fine condition with only light overall wear, perhaps most pronounced at around 9 o’clock. The solid 18K gold case with the original crown and faceted drop shaped lugs is in very fine condition with light overall wear, mostly at the lugs. The solid 18K gold case back is in very fine condition with light overall wear. The case does not appear to ever have been polished.

The watch comes on an after market leather strap of good quality with the original Omega buckle in fine condition.

Inside the watch, Omega’s high grade 552 movement beats strongly and accurately to within about +-10 seconds per day. The watch was fully serviced in June 2025 and comes with a 12 month warranty on its proper mechanical functioning.

This watch looks fantastic on the wrist with its wonderful uncluttered dial and overall excellent condition. This watch will get a lot of compliments and interest from fellow watch lovers and anyone who appreciates vintage watches.

Our watches are delivered in a luxury wooden watch box, fully serviced with a 12 month warranty that covers the mechanical functioning of the watch under normal use. We offer 14 days full return rights and are very proud of our reputation for outstanding customer satisfaction.
