Object description

Dial and Case

The watch features a specialized 'Racing Dial' characterized by a grey and orange color scheme, which distinguishes it from standard production models of the era. The dial layout includes integrated sub-registers and detailed timing tracks, with the luminous elements noted to be original and reactive to ultraviolet light.

The steel case is reported by the auction description to be in an unpolished state. It is fitted with a tachymeter bezel described as being in clean condition. The watch is accompanied by an extract from the Omega archives, which confirms that the grey and orange dial was original to the watch at the time of its initial delivery.
