Omega 2896 Jumbo Sub Second “Arrow” – 18k Rose Gold, 1956

This Omega Ref. 2896 from 1956 is a striking example of the brand’s mid-century elegance, defined by clean geometry, refined details, and beautifully balanced proportions. The oversized 36 mm 18k rose gold case — large for its era — gives the watch a confident yet understated presence on the wrist.

The untouched silver dial is all about purity and precision, highlighted by its sharp arrow hour markers, a rare and visually captivating design that instantly draws the eye. Paired with the slim sub-seconds at six and the original rose-toned handset, the layout feels both timeless and distinctively Omega.

Inside beats the reliable Caliber 267, part of the celebrated 30mm family, known for its durability and chronometric stability. With its crisp case lines and warm rose-gold glow, this example stands out as an exceptionally preserved dress Omega from the 1950s.
