Case size 20 X 37mm
Strap size 16mm.
Ref 1360
A 18ct gold rectangular Omega wristwatch, dating to the 1930s. The case measuring 20 × 37 mm including lugs. The case has a Swiss hallmark hallmarks. Cases of this period are well regarded for their crisp geometry and robust construction.
Housed within is Omega’s celebrated calibre T17, a manual‑wind, 15‑jewel rectangular movement introduced in 1934 and produced in large numbers for Omega’s Art Deco wristwatches. The movement is signed Omega, Swiss, numbered, and protected by its original inner dust‑cover, a feature typical of higher‑quality British‑market watches of the era. The T17 is known for its reliability, elegant bridge layout, and long production life, and remains one of Omega’s most successful shaped calibres.
The two‑tone gilt dial is a classic 1930s design, with black baton hour markers, a neatly recessed subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock, and fine blued‑steel hands that retain their original colour and proportion. The dial is signed Omega above the centre, completing a clean, modernist aesthetic characteristic of the firm’s pre‑war rectangular watches.
Overall, this is a distinctive Art Deco Omega, combining a high‑quality British gold case, a historically important movement, and a dial layout that captures the restrained elegance of late‑1930s design. Examples in this condition, with original case, dial, and movement integrity, are increasingly sought after by collectors of early Omega dress watches.
Case size Each of our watches is carefully cleaned and serviced, and comes complete with a one-year warranty and a new presentation box.
