Up for sale is my Omega pre reference 2318 with pontife hands (sometimes referred to as observatory hands) and black gilt two tone dial. 35mm case not including crown 18mm lug width Serial dates to early-mid 1940s Manually wound caliber 30T2 movement [Album](https://imgur.com/gallery/U1GjMUu) [Additional picture of the watch, but disassembled](https://imgur.com/gallery/2xM6O5C) [Video](https://imgur.com/gallery/6u4yGgx) [Timestamp](https://imgur.com/gallery/VQJpzWe) The watch was fully serviced in April 2024 (warranty good until April 2025). It is in excellent and all original condition and is keeping great time. It is rare to come across these with their original dial, hands and case + crown. Usually some parts have been replaced and often the dial will be refinished. It has its original two tone black dial with Arabic numerals, pontife hands, an original unsigned mushroom shaped period correct crown, and original yellow gold hands. The watch will come with all service and warranty information and a brown leather strap. The beads of rice bracelet pictured will not be included. Asking $1500 or best offer. Shipping to CONUS + insurance is included. I accept PayPal (F&F or G&S + PayPal fees with references), Venmo, Zelle, or a preferred face to face transaction in the Southern California area at a secure location. I’m available for FaceTime/video chat to answer any questions. Thanks for looking!
