Omega Automatic Bumper Ref. 2576-1 (1950s)
We are proud to offer this beautiful Omega Automatic reference 2576-1 from the 1950s, a charming vintage timepiece powered by the desirable Omega calibre 355 automatic bumper movement. With its elegant 34mm stainless steel case, subsidiary seconds and beautifully aged dial, this example perfectly captures the character of early automatic Omega watches.
The dial is one of the highlights of the watch, featuring a warm silver cream tone with a beautiful light and even patina. The applied copper toned Arabic numerals and distinctive hour markers are complemented by matching dauphine hands, creating an elegant and characteristic 1950s appearance. The subsidiary seconds display at 6 o’clock adds further depth and vintage charm.
The stainless steel case remains in nice overall condition, showing some signs of wear consistent with its age while retaining attractive proportions. The watch is fitted with a high quality replacement stainless steel bracelet featuring an Omega signed clasp, complementing the watch beautifully.
Powering the watch is the respected Omega calibre 355 automatic bumper movement. These early automatic movements are particularly appreciated by vintage Omega enthusiasts for their distinctive bumper winding system and important place in Omega’s automatic watchmaking history.
