An Omega "jumbo" wristwatch, manual wind, Switzerland, circa 1950s–1960s

£1,050.00

A highly desirable Omega “jumbo” wristwatch, dating to the mid-20th century, characterised by its oversized case, a feature that has become increasingly sought after among collectors. The watch presents with a clean, understated black dial, applied hour markers, and elegant hands, all contributing to a timeless and versatile aesthetic.

The larger case size, unusual for its period, gives the watch a strong wrist presence while maintaining classic proportions. Omega’s reputation for precision and durability is evident in the design, with the manual wind movement reflecting the brand’s longstanding tradition of quality watchmaking.

Fitted with a later leather strap, the watch retains its vintage appeal while remaining perfectly suited for modern wear. “Jumbo” Omegas are particularly prized due to their relative scarcity compared to standard-sized models, making this an appealing example for both seasoned collectors and those new to vintage timepieces.

Condition: good vintage condition overall, with wear consistent with age and use. The case shows light surface wear and minor marks, while the dial remains clean and legible with some subtle signs of age. The strap is a later replacement. The watch appears well presented, though timekeeping accuracy has not been tested. Please refer to photographs

Case dimensions: 38mm
