The following three watches come from a distinguished collector of pre-moon Omega watches. The special charm of the straight lugs and Alpha hands distinguish them easily from their later cousins that are still offered almost aesthetically unchanged since the case changes of the 105.012.
The 2993-3 was produced for a very limited period at the very beginning of the 1960's in a small quantity, probably under 5000. The case is symmetrical with small chronograph pushers which was typical of the early Speedmaster production. The movement is the classic column wheel 321, reliable, robust and attractive so much so Omega have reissued a version of it in homage.
