Let's see some Square Cased Omega Watches
I have a couple to share. The first is an 18k yellow gold case. This is a very uncommon case design with fancy Grand Luxe type lugs. A Journey Through Time shows this watch on Page 271. It was launched in 1957 and presented at the Universal Exhibition of Brussels in 1958. It has a full rotor Calibre 471.
Then I have another in a stainless steel case with textured dial. The SS one is quite a bit larger and houses a Calibre 344.
Here is one more picture of them both together.

An amazing coincidence that you brought up this topic, Phil . . .
. . . because mrsnak and I were having this very conversation recently. I don't have one to share, but I'd love to see what the community has in store for us. Very nice pair, btw, and I hope to see them in the metal someday . . . cordially, Art
Yes, your ears must having been burning
Dr. No and I spent a good amount of time on Sunday eying a rectangular Omega vintage at a local NAWCC event. This one wasn't the right one, but it sure put them bacck on my radar.
I like the textured white dial one...

Carré Galbé
Although not exactly square, this cushion-form model (carré galbé) is from 1931. Inside ticks a 26.5 SOB caliber. The black dialled one is a 23.4SC from 1937. regards, Ben....
