Why this watch.

WWII-era Omega from circa 1939

A compact Omega from the WWII period, dated circa 1939 and powered by the Caliber 26.5 SOB T2, speaks to the firm’s pre-war watchmaking approach: straightforward, reliable hand-wound mechanics housed in a stainless steel snap-back case. The acrylic crystal and leather strap underscore its period character while the movement’s pedigree reflects Omega’s long tradition of robust manual calibres. Serviced recently, this watch offers a clear link to early 20th-century wristwatch design and practical mechanical engineering that appeals to collectors who appreciate historical context and mechanically honest timepieces.
