Hi!

After having been looking for an Omega Ranchero for a long time (I have only the Belgian variant of the 70s) I had the opportunity to buy this one, even the variant with white dial. It is in a ok condition i think, and runs well.

Ref. 2990-1

Serialnr. 17563405

Cal. 267

1959

Best

Key Points from the Discussion

The Omega Ranchero Ref. 2990-1, particularly the white dial variant with broad arrow hands, is highly sought after by collectors for its distinctive vintage aesthetic.
The watch's condition, including its original dial and running movement, is a key factor in its appeal, making well-preserved examples particularly desirable.
The broad arrow hands are considered by some to be among the most beautiful Omega ever produced, contributing significantly to the watch's charm.
The crown without a logo on some Ranchero models, while potentially raising questions, is observed in period advertisements, suggesting it could be original to certain references.
