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.

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

I 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".

Wonderful example Terry! Thanks for sharing it with us!
The circular damaskeening is similar to Ball watches, the hands and all the details are great but that Aaron Lufkin Dennison 18K case is the finishing touch!

This 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!

Thanks 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'.
