Would appreciate the group's view's on this one. I particularly like the 'Omega' symbol on the hands, keeps great time which given it dates from c. 1925 cannot be bad.

Chris AbellHi Terry,
That is one of the best examples I have seen plus the great hand set, nice find.
However it really belongs in the USA

Terry PittHi Chris
Couldn't part with it
It was a present form my beloved so the credit should really go to her, I was thinking we could do with a couple of Ball ORRS over here
, been reading up on the posts, wonderful wonderful watches

David AbbeI have been looking for this quality Omega for over a year now. I am happy that it is with one of "us". Ask your "better half" that if she sees any more of these little beauties to let you know so you can pass that on to us IHC185 "Yanks".

Ben HsiungThis Omega is one of the best I've seen from this period, and with the awesome hands, ALD case, and the very nice movement it's quite a find. Thanks for sharing this great watch!

Terry PittThanks for your thoughts guys, it's really great to get a qualified opinion, like when I show my kids/friends etc all I get is 'Oh!
(long embarrassing pause!) 'That's nice!'.........!
David, will have a word with Bobbie as she obviously has a knack with these things, might get her to look out for a Ball Hamilton!, am happy to take orders, you never know!!!
Lindell, I have been a bit of an Omega nut for years and must confess I didn't know the middle name of Dennison. Sir, you are without a doubt 'The Master'.

John WoolseyGorgeous Omega Terry, good to see that real gems do keep turning up in the UK.
Your wife has a good eye too, maybe you should get her to take on some commission work
Best regards
John
