Description
This 1950s 14k solid-gold ladies Omega is an interesting and rare cocktail watch. Notice the four sparkling and authentic diamonds. these are not tiny stones and they do really catch the eye. The time is set by gently pulling up the crown on the case back with your two finger nails on both sides of the crown. Winding is done as normal, also on the case rear. I do love the engine-turned detail on the case rear, as well as the original winding crown, which is signed twice. The dial is original, as is the faceted-glass crystal. The manual winding Omega movement was just cleaned and is accurate. This is a dainty watch, with the solid-gold head measuring 15.5mm. These watches were meant to be smaller and discreet from this era. The 14k solid-gold serpentine bracelet is heavy and exquisite! The signed 14k gold bracelet was likely (expensively) added when the watch was new. I bought this Omega from the family of the original owner, who said their mom barely wore it – only on special occasions and you can tell, as it looks new. This 14k solid-gold cocktail watch will fit a 6.25″ wrist or less.
