KEY DETAILS • Brand: Omega • Model: Automatic Bumper • Reference: 2657 SC • Additional case reference: 2494-5 • Period: 1950s • Diameter: Approx. 36.5mm Jumbo proportions • Case: Rose gold plated • Dial: Original white sunburst dial • Hour markers: Applied rose gold coloured baton markers • Hands: Rose gold coloured dauphine style hands • Seconds: Subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock • Movement: Omega Calibre 342 automatic bumper • Crown: Original Omega signed crown • Strap: Brown leather strap • Accessories: Original vintage Omega presentation box with cushion • Condition: Nice vintage condition with age appropriate signs of wear The white sunburst dial remains in very nice overall condition and is beautifully complemented by the warm rose gold coloured baton markers and matching hands. The subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock completes the classic 1950s appearance. At approximately 36.5mm in diameter, the case is notably large for a watch from this era. These generous Jumbo proportions make the watch particularly attractive and give it a more substantial presence on the wrist than many comparable vintage Omega models. The watch retains its original Omega signed crown and is powered by the desirable Omega calibre 342 automatic bumper movement. The movement is functioning as may reasonably be expected from a vintage mechanical watch of this age. The watch remains in nice overall vintage condition. As can be expected from a watch dating from the 1950s, there are scratches, small marks, dents and other signs of wear consistent with its age. The condition and signs of wear are clearly visible in the photographs. The watch is fitted with a brown leather strap and is accompanied by an original vintage Omega presentation box with cushion. A charming and distinctive 1950s Omega combining an original sunburst dial, warm rose gold details, desirable bumper movement and unusually generous 36.5mm Jumbo proportions.
