The bumper movement design, which uses a semi-rotating weight with spring-loaded buffers, adds a distinctive mechanical feel that collectors appreciate. Housed in a 32.5mm stainless steel case, the watch retains its original radium dial, which has aged beautifully over time. The applied Arabic numerals and raised hour markers, combined with a railroad minute track, give the dial a clean yet highly legible appearance. The hands, originally coated with radium, have developed a rich patina, adding to the watch’s vintage appeal. The serial number 10176608 dates this piece to 1944, placing it in the heart of Omega’s wartime production era. With reference 2438-2, this watch represents a significant chapter in Omega’s history, blending wartime durability with the innovation of automatic winding technology.
