About this watch

Band: Honeycomb Yellow Gold Clasp: Folding Glass: Plexi glass Water Resistant: Dust Proof Only The Omega ref. 121.009 is a refined example of Omega’s classic 1960s dress-watch design, dating from an era when the brand’s understated elegance was expressed through clean proportions and finely executed details. Approximately 35mm yellow-gold case, framing a beautifully restrained silvered dial with applied gold baton markers, black accents and a subsidiary seconds register at 6 o’clock. The warm gold case and minimalist dial give the watch a particularly elegant mid-century character, while the striking custom-fitted 18ct gold honeycomb-style bracelet adds a distinctly jewellery-like presence and complements the original period aesthetic. Inside is Omega’s Calibre 269, a manual-winding movement from the celebrated 30mm family of movements and introduced in 1963. The calibre features 17 jewels, a Swiss lever escapement, shock protection and a frequency of 18,000 vibrations per hour (2.5 Hz), with a power reserve of approximately 45 hours. Circa 1960s, this Vintage Omega Ref. 121.009 is in overall very good condition. Offered as watch only, and is accompanied with a 24-month Vintage Watch Co warranty.
