BRAND HISTORY

Omega Gilt Syringe – A rare survivor from the golden age of Art Deco.

This 1939 Omega is an exceptional example of early 20th-century Swiss watchmaking — and a true collector’s gem. Its original black glossy gilt dial, with golden Arabic numerals and matching gilt syringe hands, radiates elegance and character. Dials like this rarely survive in such beautiful condition.

Housed in a 33 mm stainless steel case, this piece blends rugged simplicity with refined vintage charm. The Art Deco influence is unmistakable — from the typography to the overall form — making it not just a timepiece, but a window into a bygone era.

This is more than a vintage Omega — it’s an artifact of 1930s design culture, preserved with care and offered with provenance.

Omega

Few watchmakers have a résumé as storied — or as proudly worn — as Omega. Since 1848, the maison has been at the center of history, science, sport, and style. From lunar landings to Olympic games, from deep-sea dives to Bond films, Omega watches have accompanied the bold and the brilliant every step of the way.

But beyond the headlines lies something more intimate: a legacy of precision, purpose, and unmistakable design that makes Omega vintage watches some of the most collectible and meaningful timepieces ever made.

For collectors, few moments are as defining as 1969 — when the Speedmaster became the first watch worn on the Moon. But long before that, Omega was pushing boundaries: anti-magnetic cases in the 1950s Railmaster, the revolutionary dive-ready Seamaster 300, the effortlessly elegant Constellation, and the space-age Dynamic. Each one tells a story — of innovation, of function, of fearless design.

Omega vintage watches are where tool-watch utility meets mid-century beauty. Clean dials. Twisted lugs. Pie-pan textures. Lume-aged hands that glow with nostalgia. They’re not just instruments — they’re artifacts of a century in motion.

To wear an Omega is to wear a piece of collective memory. It’s for the collector who values performance, but also emotion. Someone who connects with history not just through words, but through the tick of a movement that once timed a mission, lit up a ballroom, or accompanied a dive into the unknown.

Omega doesn’t need embellishment. It’s trusted. Proven. Loved.

Because true greatness doesn’t announce itself — it leaves a legacy. And when that legacy is preserved in a finely aged case, beating with life decades later, it becomes something more:

A vintage watch that reminds you of where we’ve been — and dares you to keep going.
