Omega Honeycomb Bumper "Breguet 12"

 

Here we have a particularly attractive 1952 Omega bumper automatic, reference 2402-3, featuring one of the most desirable dial configurations of the period: a beautifully aged honeycomb dial with a warm, creamy patina.

 

The dial is wonderfully detailed, with applied coin-edge hour markers catching the light from every angle, while the solitary Breguet numeral at 12 o’clock adds a touch of elegance and restraint that perfectly encapsulates early 1950s Omega design. Paired with contrasting gold hands, the dial possesses a richness and depth that gives the watch a genuinely elevated presence on the wrist.

 

The case is equally appealing, featuring elegant Tressa-style lugs that flow beautifully from the case body and lend the watch a distinctive profile. These sculpted lugs add both character and sophistication, setting the reference apart from many of its contemporaries.

 

Powering the watch is Omega’s celebrated bumper automatic movement, a fascinating transitional mechanism whose oscillating weight gently “bumps” between springs, offering a uniquely tactile connection to the watch’s operation and an important chapter in Omega’s automatic history.

 

Presented in excellent condition and running exceptionally well, this 1952 Omega has been thoroughly checked and is supplied with a 12-month mechanical guarantee for complete peace of mind.

 

A highly charming and increasingly sought-after honeycomb dial Omega, combining beautiful mid-century design, mechanical interest, and exceptional wrist presence.
