The watch has a calibre 1030 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Omega logo and name, and it has the serial number 35,766,534 which dates it back to 1972.
The watch measures 36mm wide excluding the plain crown, and 37mm high. The case is gold plated while the screw on case back is stainless steel. The case is in good condition, just a couple of scratches to the back but nothing too serious. The inside of the case back has the Omega logo and the case reference 136 0102 which is correct for the 1030 movement.
The lens is the original with the tiny clear Omega logo to the centre. A couple of light marks to the lens but nothing serious at all.
The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, centre seconds hand and date display (quickset at first position).
The watch has a later leather strap and it all comes in an Omega presentation box.
All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
