Hi all,
I decided to sell a very nice, all original Omega pocket watch from 1962.
Ref. is 1180 62, it has a 49mm stainless steel case in very good conditions. The same for the original silver dial, very clean.
It has just a slight spot between 53 and 54 minutes, hardly noticeable. Otherwise, it's perfect.
Original hands set and crown.
In house manual movement 161 is really clean and good looking, working strong. Manual winding is smooth and precise, last service unknown. 18.6 millions serial dates back to 1961/62.
Please ask me via pm for any doubt about the watch. I will reply as fast as possible.
Watch and me are located in Rome, Italy. For this watch, I would like to get 280 euros, shipping to be decided with buyer.
Payment via bank wire strongly preferred, a face to face in Rome is possible.
I have some good feedbacks so far on OF at the following links both as buyer and seller, but plenty of references from other international fora and ebay can be provided if needed:
Before posting some pics, thanks a lot OF for the opportunity and thanks you all for looking.
Alessandro

Founded at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland in 1848 by 23-year-old Louis Brandt who assembled key-wound precision pocket watches from parts supplied by local craftsmen. He travelled throughout Europe selling his watches from Italy to Scandinavia by way of England, his chief market. After Louis Brandt's death in 1879, his two sons Louis-Paul and Cesar, troubled by irregular deliveries of questionable quality, abandoned the unsatisfactory assembly workshop system in favour of in-house manufacturing and total production control. Due to the greater supply of manpower, communications and energy in Bienne, the enterprise moved into a small factory in January 1880, then bought the entire building in December. Two years later the company moved into a converted spinning-factory in the Gurzelen district of Bienne, where headquarters are still situated today. Their first series-produced calibres, Labrador and Gurzelen, as well as, the famous Omega calibre of 1894, would ensure the brand's marketing success.
