For your consideration today is an extremely-hard-to-find condition and state Omega WWW watch issued in World War II to the British soldiers.
Watch is 100% original with the exception of the crystal and nato strap. Dial has ZERO paint loss, which is very common for this model, and every single lume is aged to a desirable dark tan. Dial has NO darken dot blemish due to any possible moisture damage; it is really almost that perfect. Hands are in superb condition as well.
Movement is also superb as well, with ZERO issue. The balance wheel IF you noticed is the true correct 30T2 WWW version, with the split (disconnected) in the "ring" (check out the pictures). Most of these are replaced with slightly newer balance wheel which are not only incorrect, but may cause accuracy issue. Replacement ones are very commonly found as these are 60 years old and most of them are being mishandled then. This particular movement shines well, though I have no idea on service history. It keeps time very well, to about +15 seconds a day.
If you are looking for this model for some time already, you should know that this model in this condition is an extremely rare find as most of these are already in the safe of serious collectors.
Here are the pics of this wonderful watch:
My asking price for this beauty is firm at USD 1,400 shipped to your doorstep. IF you do not want the dial, you can take USD 250 off from the deal. Paypal acceptable if you pay the 4% and the shipping cost of USD20 but wire is most preferred with free shipping.
Solid trade references upon request. I can be reached at reficul_x@yahoo.com
