OMEGA produced designs with a very bold aesthetic using the Caliber 30 in the years leading up to the war. The present example is a textbook example of the “Calatrava” style, with square-edged bezel, tucked in lugs, and sub-seconds track. The original dial has taken on a lovely salmon patina, complementing the vibrant blued hands.
