This Omega 2451-2 is super sharp and appears in unpolished condition with strong case.
The case has the original old logo crown.
The most beautiful part of this watch is the dial, which is one of the cleanest we have seen with applied arrow hour indexes and early alpha handset.
These could be called a Pre-Speedmaster as they carry a lot of similar qualities like the hands and three counter dial which is scaled down in to a neat 35mm case. And the movement, a lemania 27ch or Caliber 321 as used in the moonwatch.
With this chronograph you are getting so much quality and craftmenship in a beautiful package, it is hard to resist its charms.
