Here is the very difficult to find and always sought after limited edition 18ct rose gold Omega Anniversary model.
To commemorate the centenary of the famous 19†"Omega" calibre that gave its name to the company, Omega brought out of storage in 1994 the 2100 last 30mm calibres it still had. Created in 1939, the 30mm calibre has long been regarded even today as one of the best watch movements ever made. Known for its exceptional reliability and performance, these movements were put in specially made 18ct rose gold watch cases limited to 1894 pieces.
This one is number 1795 and with the exhibition window at the back allowing you to see the movement, it is no wonder why this Omega model has become so sought after.
Measuring 36mm across plus the Omega crown, the design of the case belies its size and actually appears much larger on the wrist.
With one of the nicest watch dials ever made that pays homage to its history yet at the same time having a modern look to it, this is a watch that will certainly continue to be admired every time that it is worn.
This Limited Edition Omega Anniversary model is a brilliant looking watch with a brilliant movement to match.

A brief history on this Omega watch as taken from the Omega book, Omega - A journey through time:
"In order to commemorate the centenary (1894 – 1994)of the famous 19†“Omega†calibre that gave its name to the company founded by Louis Brandt in 1848, Omega brought out of storage in September 1994 the 2100 last 30mm calibres it still had. Created in 1939, the 30mm calibre was to the wristwatch what the 19†was to the pocket watch. Its exceptional reliability, its precision performance, its sturdiness and its ease of maintenance made the 30mm a benchmark in watchmaking for more than a quarter of a century.
To encase these precious pieces of its history, Omega chose to reproduce a watch model from 1944 that was marked by the classicism of its lines and the elegance of its case. A display back was fitted to showcase the famous red gilt finish of the 30mm calibre – a characteristic of Omega’s movements."...."Three versions of this commemorative watch were launched, 1894 in red gold....."
