Description:

Omega 17J automatic (self-winding) wrist watch #10805612, case #10742599, rose-gold flashed movement with bold red ruby jewels and a brushed finish, single sunk (SS) gold-toned metal dial with a brushed finish, slender raised gold markers, a black-marked outer minute register and a black-marked subsidiary seconds register has some light patina starting across the surface and on the markers along with some fading to the lettering on "automatic", slender gold steel baton & whip style hands with pointed tips and a blue steel second hand.

Elegant smooth polish 18k gold round case with a sloped bezel supporting a slightly domed plastic crystal, comma-shaped extended lugs, a stepped detail to the bezel edges & frame and a fancy crown, case is showing light normal wear with a few very light scuffs & short scratches but no notable damage, we do believe the unmarked crown is a replacement to the case, measures approx. 32mm in diameter x 39mm lug to lug x 10mm thick (crystal included), weighs approx. 19.8dwt (movement included).

New lightly padded, heavily textured black leather strap band with generic markings and an Omega marked YGF buckle, while technically a triple signed watch by our definition we also acknowledge that the band is not fully Omega. This watch also comes with a bright red leatherette box with a red velvet interior, a red cardboard outer shipping carton and a beige pouch with faded jeweler's markings, the cardboard box does have some damage at the corners. An attractive, classic solid gold Omega from the 1940s in excellent overall condition!
