A rare 1943 OMEGA HS8 British Fleet Air Arm pilots watch in fully working order, along with dress medals and insignia belonging to the pilot plus a signed photograph of Pilot Officer XXXXXXX. Good provenance and authentic supporting items to validate service record. The back of the case is marked HS8 with upward pointing arrow and is numbered 5412. This item was described by horologist, and world-reknowned expert, Dr Edward Roke, whose advice I sought, and which was kindly provided, as. Clearly a genuine HS8 Fleet Air Arm. The case itself is in good original used condition with ageing to chrome on case sides. The chromed bezel has some nicks and scratches through normal military use as this was used in active service towards the end of WW2. The watch measures 32mm excluding the crown and has a vintage strap attached, not sure if this is the original, in good condition for investment purposes. The watch dial is in good condition, colour is off-white / barley. It shows very light spotting to the far right of the dial near the number 3, but overall clean. Signed OMEGA with the wording underneath’Swiss Made’ on the lower rim of the dial. It has black painted Arabic numerals in the correct typeface bordered by an open-track minute measure. The blued steel hands move smoothly and are particular to these military issue Omegas: crystal (the glass) is clear and glossy with just light scuffs from normal use, several 1mm very light scratches to the left of centre. A service by a proper watch maker is recommended if you want to wear / use this. Has not been used/worn since late 1960s at least, possibly since the war era. Hardly any wear to the crown. It was used during active service in WW2 and includes with the watch, dress medals, 1939-45 medal, the defence medal and another, plus insignia from uniform, plus a photograph in full flying kit and signed with hand-written message to family this is not displayed in listing, again, out of respect.
