An Omega Disco Volante
This Omega ref. CK2013 has a 39 mm steel case and a silver two tone dial with blued hands. It is powered by hand-wound movement Caliber 26.5.
I personally like the Disco Volante design a lot and have dedicated a previous thread to some "Holy Trinity" examples.
And I find this Omega really charming.
What about you?

Interesting design...
Dial looks great, but need to check out how such case sits on the wrist.
Yes, charming and more!
Have always been a fan of the disco volante.
Wish I had kept a Patek 2501 I had a while back.
In the 80's you could still find NOS. Love your Omega.
What great condition in addition to the design. I remember
your thread on the holy trinity. Fantastic. Maybe my favorite
are the Audemars. Really great.
Like you, I think the APs are the most appealing.
This Omega isn't mine, unfortunately, and the price asked is a little high, but I really like it.
The PP 2501 is very nice too ( www.watchprosite.com ), but I think I like the Disco Volante design even more without lugs.

Movement number indicates mid-'30s production . . .
. . . but my sense is that it was cased later, probably early to mid-'40s.

Ooo. Thanks. I believe the movement of this omega is not as thin as AP 2001 or VC 1003 movements used in both brands’ disco volante.
But the dial is amazing. Although at second look (per the other comment) second hand doesnt seem to align to centre.
Highly appealing, I must say. The dial, the case, the hands, the movement, everything.
Unfortunately, the price asked is a bit high
and I would want to see it in real life.
But the photos really got me excited.

Over €8k seems a lot to me for such a watch, but I might be wrong.
What do you think?
