This Watch
We have here a classic 1950s Omega automatic wristwatch, model 2635. Dated from the turn of the decade, the dial has aged appropriately for it's 70+ years of service and gives no doubt to the originality. The mix of chrome Arabic numerals with square, lumed pips and arrow markers, as well as the lumed dauphine hour and minute hands and sweeping central seconds hand all scream 1950s design.
Inside the 34mm, stainless steel, screw-back case is the Omega automatic bumper caliber 531, fully serviced by us and running strongly. We've paired this beauty on a black lizard grain strap to dress it up a bit, but it works well with anything.
Extra Points
Founded by Louis Brandt in 1848, Omega started out as La Generale Watch Co., an unassuming, but international business. It wasn't until 1885, when the company had been taken over by Louis' sons, that the first mass-produced caliber, the Labrador, was released. By 1903, the company had renamed itself Omega and only two years later were they the official timekeepers at many sporting events across Switzerland. Omega stepped onto an international stage in 1932 as the official timekeepers at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, the first of over 20 Olympic Games. Omega were one of the 12 companies, now known as the Dirty Dozen, commissioned to produce watches for the British Military during the Second World War. One of Omega's most iconic watches, the Seamaster, was introduced in 1948 to celebrate their 100th anniversary. Over 70 years later, it is still one of Omega's best selling watches.
This watch comes fully serviced by our on-site workshop and with a 12 month, non-waterproof service cover.
