Description
This ultra-rare Omega chronograph reference CK2077 dates from the 1940s and is powered by the legendary 33.3CHRO movement.

Introduced in 1937, reference CK 2077 was Omega's first water-resistant chronograph.

This watch has a classic black dial with luminous Arabic numerals and diamond-shaped hands. With its 38 mm diameter, this wristwatch was oversized by the standards of the time, but enjoys great popularity because of its size today.

The chronograph is powered by the famous caliber 33.3 CHRO and features a 30-minute counter and running seconds. This movement is characterized by the shock protection of the balance wheel, which was a major innovation at the time of manufacture.

The case back of this Omega is engraved with "BMW" and a three-digit number. This indicates the special origin of this watch. Presumably, the watches with this engraving were presented to BMW executives as a sign of recognition.

Condition report
Dial: excellent condition - absolutely even patina - original radium luminous material - signed "OMEGA".

Case: 38mm stainless steel case - sharp lugs - slight signs of wear - round chrono pushers - deep engravings on the back.

Movement: manually-wound Omega 33.3 caliber works precisely and reliably.

Summing-Up
The reference CK 2077 is very popular with collectors, as it is the first waterproof chronograph by Omega. Due to its outstanding condition and the special engraving on the back, this example is extremely difficult to replace.
