1944 Omega 30T2 "Red Star" Teddington

Up for sale is a rare and historically significant 1944 Omega 30T2, reference 2271 — a coveted example from the celebrated era of Omega’s chronometer-grade production.

 

This piece presents a beautifully preserved two-tone sector dial, framed by applied Roman numerals and a generously sized sub-seconds register, all brought together by elegant foil-leaf hands that catch the light with subtle vintage charm.

 

Most notably, the dial bears the distinctive red star beneath the Omega signature — an emblem reserved exclusively for the Brazilian market. Collectors often refer to these as the Teddington Red Star Omegas, named after the Teddington timing trials and later featured prominently in Omega’s chronometer advertisements of the 1940s. Very few examples surface today, particularly in such original and harmonious condition.

 

Powered by the revered Calibre 30T2, this reference embodies the precision, aesthetics, and wartime-era craftsmanship that define Omega’s golden period. An exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the rarer regional-market variants from Omega’s sector-dial lineage — a true connoisseur’s piece.
