This is an authentic and rare Omega pocket watch, a piece of Swiss horological history from the early 20th century. The serial number on the movement and case, 3403298, dates its production to 1908. What makes this watch particularly special is the double signature of the retailer "José Varela e hijo Tandil" on both the dial and the inner case back, indicating it was a special order for a prestigious jeweler in Argentina, which adds a layer of unique history and rarity. The outer case is beautifully engraved with a monogram. The watch is in working condition, but it is missing the main crystal on the dial. Its patina and character tell a story of over a century of history. It's an ideal piece for collectors and enthusiasts who value authenticity and items with a unique background.
