Founded in 1848, Omega stands among Switzerland's most important watchmakers. Celebrated for its ties to space exploration, Olympic timekeeping, and the Co-Axial escapement, the brand pairs innovation with functional design. Though famous for its sport and professional models, Omega's deeper technical achievements are often overshadowed by its mainstream recognition, leaving its full horological impact under-appreciated.

On offer is an incredibly well preserved Omega "Calatrava" style dress watch, circa 1957. It features applied Arabic indices at 12, 3 an 9 o-clock, sub-seconds and dauphine style hands which are non-luminous, pairing to the the dial. This example is cased in solid 18k pink gold and houses a high-grade manual winding Omega cal. 267. We're thrilled to offer such a striking example that retains an extremely sharp and unpolished case with very minimal signs of use and the dial is equally impressive with no notable wear. This is a true time capsule example bringing us back almost 70 years. For anyone looking for a top quality vintage dress from the "golden era" of Omega, we'd be hard pressed to find a more striking example.
