Notes: The present watch was sourced from the original owner's family and is a truly excellent and honest example. Regarding the dark minutes hand, research shows that this is commonly found on watches from the time period in order to better differentiate at night the minutes and hours of similar shapes and the use of the hour hand alone could be used for telling the time.
According to the archives extract from the Omega Museum, this watch was manufactured May 21, 1946 and delivered to Norway.
