The strong black dial with gilt printing is a perfect refinishing and the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye. The movement is its original Omega caliber 1430 quartz mechanism with quick-setting date.
But what is most striking about the watch is its incredible condition! It is in true expertly restored condition. It is fully Omega down to the hands, crown and presents on the wrist as as mint.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
A gorgeously restored three and a half decade old Omega that presents on the wrist almost like new!
