Up for sale is a fantastic piece of horological and colonial history: a genuine Omega open-face pocket watch dating to approximately 19301934 (Serial: 7,588,513).

This watch is a "double-signed" piece, featuring the prestigious T. Forbes & Son - Bulawayo retailer name on the dial, making it a rare find for collectors of African provenance or regional history.

  • Movement: Original Omega manual-wind caliber in working condition. Ticks strongly and sets smoothly.

  • Dial: Classic white enamel (porcelain) with bold Arabic numerals. Features the original blued-steel hands.

  • Case: Authentic Omega-signed nickel-finish case (Serial: 8,086,061). Shows honest age-related wear but no major dents.

  • Condition Notes: * The hour hand is snapped (stub remains on the post).

    • The enamel dial has a small chip and a hairline crack between the 3 and 4 o'clock positions.

    • Historical "service marks" are visible inside the case back, showing a long life of care.
