Omega Classic Fancy Cocktail Watch in Yellow Gold – 1961

2,750

This elegant 1961 Omega ladies’ cocktail watch is a lovely example of mid-century design. We currently have a similar piece available for sale — without the more decorative engraved lugs. We’re particularly fond of these models, as each one is slightly different from the next.
Crafted in 9k yellow gold, this timepiece was made and retailed by Omega for the UK market. It’s powered by a hand-wound movement and carries the understated luxury and mechanical integrity Omega was known for during this period. At just 17mm across, the case is delicate yet entirely wearable.

More detail
The bracelet is a highlight — its fluid, almost liquid feel on the wrist comes from the many finely articulated links of the integrated construction. This quadruple-signed watch is one of the better-preserved Omega cocktail watches we’ve come across in a while, which is saying something for a piece now 65 years old. The dial is clean and unlumed in eggshell, with applied hour markers and onyx baton hands. A charming touch: the fold-over clasp is subtly shaped in the form of the Omega logo.
The Omega Caliber 483 is a hand-wound ladies’ movement from the 1950s, featuring 17 jewels, 19,800 vph, and a 42-hour power reserve.
Accompanied by its original red leather Omega box.

Wrist circumference: 17cm to 18.5cm (three different closing positions)
