The Watch
Louis Brandt (born year 1825) founded an assembly workshop in La Chaux-de-Fonds back in 1848 - that was the beginning of OMEGA. His sons; Loius-Paul Brandt and César Brandt further developed the company and were among the first to apply refined mechanical manufacturing procedures to high quality watches.
The year 1894 saw the beginning of the production of the famous Omega calibers, remarkable for its perfect construction. With the end of the second World War Omega is overwhelmed with orders. In this period this rare Omega was made!

The Condition
This is a stunner! As you can tell from the pictures, its hard to believe that this watch is from 1961. The dial of this watch is one of a kind. The dial is amazing as you can see, the case is unpolished and well preserved. The crystal is original with the Omega logo stamped in the centre. The inside of the crystal got some dust at the centre but hard to capture in a photo, see pictures This is a keeper!
Sold as "is"!
