Description

Omega was founded in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds. By 1900 Omega produced one of the first serially produced wristwatches in the world. During WWI 1914-1918, Omega supplied trench watches to officers — pocket watch movements cased in solid silver with fixed wire lugs to strap to the wrist. This is one of those: a 1916 solid silver cushion case with white enamel dial, small seconds and hand-engraved owner's name on the back. A 110-year-old piece of horological and military history.

CASE:
o Trench / cushion case with large fixed wire lugs - classic WWI Officer's shape
o Construction: Solid Silver 0.900 - confirmed by Omega logo and Swiss bear hallmark inside caseback - inner dust cover signed "5918655" with Swiss hallmarks - engraved on outer back "G. Dubrit " in script with serial "5918655" and Omega logo — previous owner's name, typical war-time presentation engraving
o Dimensions: 31mm width x 36mm lug to lug x 11mm thickness x 20mm lug width - large for 1916, modern 31mm today
o New generic crown
o Crystal: New generic plexiglass
o The swan mark you see is the Swiss official silver hallmark for.900 silver

MOVEMENT:
o Omega Manual Wind - 15 Jewels - Serial 5108417 - 1916 production
o Working condition - Runs, winds and sets
o Serviced by watchmaker in September 2026 (movement was disassembled, washed, lubricated) - photo of timegrapher - We decided to preserve originality as much as possible and not replace parts, given the 100+ year age, accuracy is secondary to preservation, that is why you will be a major deviation..

DIAL & HANDS:
o White enamel dial - with characteristic hairline cracks in enamel
o Black Arabic numerals with red 13-24 hour inner track, black railroad minute track, Omega logo and "OMEGA" at 12
o Original black cathedral / poire skeleton hands - blued steel - original
o Small seconds sub-dial at 6 o'clock with black track and blued hand - original
o Dial is signed Omega, no radium - safe

BRACELET / STRAP:
o New 20mm black leather strap - to fit the large wire lugs - never worn
o Generic chrome buckle

CONCLUSION / CONDITION:
A true WWI time capsule! A 1916 Omega solid silver trench watch with enamel dial, wire lugs and owner engraving. This model is documented as one of Omega's first wristwatches, directly related to the 1900 first Omega wristwatch shown in "A Journey Through Time" book. Perfect for Omega collectors, military watch collectors and lovers of 100-year-old horology.

Time is Precious

Let’s find that watch you like

New / unworn
The watch has not been worn and is in new condition. It may come directly from an authorised dealer or the brand itself, or it may have been recently traded without being worn.
Pre-owned
The watch has previously been traded and may show light to visible signs of wear, depending on the stated condition.

The condition is determined by the seller based on visual inspection and functional assessment in accordance with Wristler guidelines.

New
Sourced directly from an authorised dealer or the brand. Unpolished and free from signs of wear. Delivered with full manufacturer’s warranty. The warranty period begins upon registration with the brand and may have already started prior to delivery to the final buyer.
Unworn
Previously traded but never worn. May qualify as New Old Stock (NOS). Free from visible signs of wear. Does not imply anything about remaining manufacturer’s warranty or the presence of factory stickers.
Very good
Minor signs of wear such as hairline marks or small surface scratches. Case, bezel, and bracelet retain sharp edges and overall form. May have been professionally polished without affecting the original contours. Fully functional mechanically.
Good
Visible signs of wear such as scratches, small dents, or light bracelet stretch. May have been professionally polished. Fully functional mechanically.
Fair
Clearly visible signs of wear, including scratches, dents, or noticeable bracelet or clasp wear. Servicing may be recommended in the future. Fully functional unless otherwise stated.

All watches offered on Wristler are fully functional and meet normal expectations for mechanical performance unless explicitly stated otherwise. The seller provides a guarantee on proper mechanical operation.

Water resistance cannot be guaranteed for older watches unless specifically indicated.

If you have any doubts about the condition, carefully review the photos and description. You may contact the seller via chat to request additional photos or video material to better assess the watch before purchase.

Manufacturer's warranty
The manufacturer offers a 5-year international warranty from the warranty activation date, transferable within that period. This date can differ from the year of production, so the remaining warranty depends on this specific watch; see its papers.
