The Watch
This beautiful 1964 Omega Oversized Reference 2748 was faithfully and professionally restored by SwissTec to the highest of standards, the dial is incredible and looks perfect, the case with its brushed and polished is brilliant! Overall you will not be disappointed with this 36mm dress watch that looks a million pounds both on and off the wrist! The finishing to the sector dial plays with the light perfectly, depending on what angle you have it the silvered numerals explode and give the watch a whole new feel!
Whilst restored dials aren't for everyone, I think they offer a vintage watch to people in perfect condition and faithful to how it originally looked. If done well it can even rival the original dial in how great it is, this is one of those examples!
Personal Note
When an email hit my inbox stating a restored dial I was hesitant, but after seeing a few photos and then finally having the watch in hand I was absolutely blown away! This watch has changed my mind of restoring dials, for the right reasons you can bring new life to an old watch!
