Polishing a silver case removes material along with the scratches: the edges become rounded, the sides hollow out, and the watch loses a little of its design each time.

Here, the day and month appear in two apertures below 12 o'clock, in French, and the date is indicated by a central hand with a red arrow pointing to the scale from 1 to 31 printed around the edge of the dial. The calendar does not account for months with fewer than 31 days: it must be corrected by hand, five times a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the calendar set?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe A.

Presented at the 1940 New York World's Fair, the Calendograf entered history in 1946, when Switzerland offered one to Winston Churchill during his visit.

This construction eliminates one gasket — therefore one entry point for water — and that is why Omega used it on its Seamaster. It requires a watchmaker accustomed to it, which our partners are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe dial shows marks: is that a problem?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is the patina of a sixty-five-year-old dial that has never been restored, and we prefer to show it rather than hide it: our photographs document it precisely. A refinished dial would present a perfect surface but would have lost its originality — on Omega watches from this period, collectors consistently favor originality over appearance.

The specifications required a black dial with white Arabic numerals, central seconds, hand-wound movement, and hacking seconds for synchronization. Three manufacturers met these requirements: Elgin, Waltham, and Bulova. A-11 watches were never sold in stores; they were distributed by the army, and the casebacks bear the inscription A.F. U.S. Army, the type, the specification number, a serial number preceded by the year, and an order number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the purpose of hacking seconds?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen the crown is pulled, the seconds hand stops. This allowed an entire crew to set their watches to the exact same second before a mission: each person would pull the crown, position the hand at twelve, and all would push the crown back in on the signal. On this watch, the function is operational. It remains useful today for setting the watch precisely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does \"dial possibly restored\" mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt means that we can neither confirm nor rule out that the dial has been refinished. Military-issued watches were maintained in atelier service, and dial refinishing was a routine operation there as soon as legibility declined. A crisp dial on a 1943 watch may therefore be original and well preserved, or it may have been redone at the time or later. We prefer to state this rather than decide without proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should a chrome-plated case be cared for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChrome is a plating over a base metal: it withstands everyday use well but wears on edges and friction points, revealing the brass underneath. On this watch, the chrome plating is even across the caseband and marked only on the lugs. A soft cloth is sufficient for care; abrasive products and impacts against hard surfaces should be avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat wrist size is this watch suited to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a 32mm case and 39mm Lug-to-lug, it is the standard format of military watches from the period, ideally worn on a slim to متوسط wrist, where it retains the presence of an instrument without being cumbersome. That said, a watch is also a matter of style: depending on taste and the look sought, this piece can be worn equally well by a man or a woman, on all kinds of wrists.

It affects neither legibility, nor the stability of the applied hour markers, nor the functioning of the watch. Above all, it attests that the dial is the original one and has never been refinished. A restored dial would have a uniform surface but would lose a large part of its appeal in the eyes of collectors, who favor integrity over a like-new appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the swan-neck regulator on caliber 600?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIt is a fine rate adjustment system, consisting of a swan-neck spring and a micrometric screw that allow the watchmaker to adjust the position of the regulator index with great precision. Omega reserved it for the 600 and 610 calibres, before replacing it with a less costly eccentric regulator on the 601 and 611 generations. This component is therefore among the last to benefit from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does this model not bear a collection name?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the 1960s, Omega produced a broad catalogue of dress watches designated solely by their reference, without a commercial name.

This was the practice of almost all Geneva houses of the period, including the most prestigious.

It is harder, and therefore more resistant to scratches, which explains its frequent use for cases intended for daily wear. It is solid gold, not to be confused with gold-plated or gold-filled: no base metal will ever appear in areas of wear. Polishing should nevertheless be considered with restraint, as it removes material and gradually softens the original edges. The stated weight of 28.6 grams corresponds to the complete watch without strap, including the movement, dial and Crystal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a vintage gold watch a safe purchase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is, provided authenticity has been established and the condition is described without reservation, including any interventions.

The motif became one of the maison's signatures and appears on its Jewelry as well as on some of its watches. On this dial, it takes the form of four applied fan-shaped sectors, whose tones stand out clearly in direct light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is vermeil?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVermeil is solid silver, here 925 silver, covered with a layer of gold — twenty microns on this reference, which constitutes a thick plating. It is neither gold-plated brass nor solid gold: the base is a precious metal, which distinguishes vermeil from simple platings. This is the original construction of the Must watches of Cartier and the guiding principle of the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Colisée model?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe Colisée is the round variation of the Must line by Cartier, whose entirely smooth, domed case middle forms a single polished surface from the Crystal to the lugs. It offers a more fluid and softer reading than the house's angular silhouettes, and differs from the Vendôme by the absence of screwed brancard lugs. Its 24mm format places it firmly in the feminine register.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should a vermeil case be cared for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA soft, dry cloth is sufficient for routine care. Avoid silver cleaning products: they are abrasive and attack the surface layer of gold. In areas where the gilding may begin to thin, the silver may darken slightly over time, which is the normal behavior of the metal and not a defect.

The distinction matters to a collector, as a service dial remains a manufacture part.

The movement is inserted from the front, after removing the Crystal, which explains the absence of any separation line on the sides.

It is an intermediate construction between plating and solid gold, which Omega commonly used on its dress watches of the 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the double signature Seamaster De Ville ?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDe Ville was born within the Seamaster collection as its dress variation, before separating from it to become an autonomous line in 1967.

On Must by Cartier from the 1980s and 1990s, the colored lacquers — burgundy first and foremost — evolve in this way over the decades: each dial cracks along its own path, so that no two examples are identical.

The design descends from the pocket watches the house converted into wristwatches at the beginning of the twentieth century, and its name pays tribute to the Place Vendôme.

The 613 is the date version of the famous caliber 601: a 17-jewel hand-wound mechanical movement, among Omega's most widely distributed movements at the end of the 1960s.
