The 1940s was a good time for Omega, as exemplified in this beautiful piece from 1944.
Fitted with a 35 mm 18k yellow gold, down-turned lugs, and with a gorgeous Railroad dial, you really can't beat this watch. The dial has aged beautifully, and it features an Arabic twelve at the top and diamond shaped hour markers. A subsidiary seconds dial, further stepping up this watch's dress game a notch.
This example is in incredible condition, the case is sharp and clean. The dial is in impeccable condition.
