1950 Omega Chronograph Caliber 321 ref. 174-3, Steel 35mm

Up for grabs is an Omega Chronograph in steel

Reference 174-3; a reference shared Omega, Tissot, and Lemania. Later on, around 1952, I believe, Omega’s reference of this watch becomes CK 2451.

12976379 serial number dates the watch to around 1950 production. A request for Omega’s Extract of Archives would help determine that date more firmly.

Excellent vintage condition case shows no major dings or dents. It still shows its factory bevels and shapes.

The dial is original, with very faded “ghost” print but it is not relumed or refinished. Hands also are period correct and appear original.

Caseback has clear engravings.

The Cal. 321 movement is in running condition, but service history is not know.

Watch comes on leather strap with generic steel buckle.
