It is pleasingly larger than most similar dress watches from the era - it measures 36mm without the crown - the same size as a mens Rolex Datejust. Powering it is Omega's thin automatic, 24 jewel caliber 711 movement.
The 700 series has a direct lineage with the celebrated 500 series, and is arguably as good, and collectors are beginning to recognize it accordingly.
Its "tropical" gold-plated case with original stainless steel back for durability has the look of solid gold for a fraction of the price.
It is fully Omega down to the dial, hands, and winding crown and has just finished being restored with a true expertly done restoration. It presents as about a 9.7 out of 10 for condition. Its dial has been meticulously refinished - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.
As part of the restoration the movement has just been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker.
For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
