Divesting continues!

Up next is an interesting and unique – unique* to me as I have not seen this model & dial pattern around the forum.

Reference: Omega 14389-5

Movement: Omega cal. 268 (manual)

History of Service: The watch was serviced and the case restored on 2017 by Lewis Watch Company under the steady hands of @photo500; mainspring and seals were replaced during the service.

Some notes recorded by the watchmaker during service – “There is an inscription between the lugs (and inside the case back) indicating the case is plated but it doesn't specify gold. In my experience Omega used stainless steel for all silver colored cases and brass for gold capped ones.”

Dial: IMO this is the charm of this watch! The color changes slightly depending on the light temperature and viewing angle – I’d describe the color of the dial as light mustard but it's difficult to capture on pictures. Others have described this dial pattern as “unique” with a “pinstripe pajama” design.

Case: Stainless steel showing some wear consistent with the age of the watch. The case was restored during service as the lugs were subjected to some rough polish. The caseback presents a sharp and well-defined Seahorse logo from Omega's Seamaster collection.

Lugs: 18mm, restored during service and showing minor imperfections

Crown: Omega-signed

Diameter: 35 mm not including the crown

Crystal: In good condition – non-glass type
