Omega
€0.00
For sale is a Swiss Made Omega Genève "Racing" men's watch with reference number 135.041 dating back to 1968. This specific model is dubbed the "Grand Sport" and catches the eye with its matte black dial with chequered flag print around the edge and quarter indexes. It was made only for the Canadian market, and is said to have commemorated the 1968 F1 Grand Prix - the first one ever held at Circuit Mont-Tremblant. Its limited production makes this a very rare vintage Omega watch with an interesting link to racing heritage. The case of this timepiece is made from stainless steel with subtle sunburst finish around the bezel. The crown is original and bears the Omega logo. Inside the watch we find a caliber 601 manual winding movement, which is perfectly keeping time.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in wonderful condition considering its age. You will find some marks on the case when closely examining the watch. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape. The glass has been replaced, but for an original example which bears the Omega hallmark in the center. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been serviced prior to sale and is working perfectly. It comes with a brand new black strap with white stitching.
The watch comes without any paperwork or original box, but evidently we will provide a generic box to ship it to the buyer safe and sound. The item ships from Belgium and will be securely packaged and dispatched using the local postal service (BPost).
