History & Significance
The ref. F6251 comes from Omega’s early postwar era, a period defined by the brand’s refinement of automatic bumper technology. The Cal. 344 inside this example is part of Omega’s 28.10 movement lineage, known for its semi-rotor system that travels in a limited arc and “bumps” against springs. This design predates modern full-rotor automatics and remains a hallmark of Omega’s early engineering.
The watch carries a classic mid-century dress aesthetic: a slim gold filled case with sculpted lugs, applied indices including an Arabic twelve, and a small-seconds register at six. The silver dial has an understated two-tone effect that reinforces its period charm. This example is fitted with a Speidel gold filled mesh bracelet, an aftermarket but era-appropriate pairing often seen on watches from this generation.
Writer’s Thoughts
The Cal. 344 gives this piece the tactile feel that only a bumper movement offers, and the case design has more character than many Omega dress references of the time. It wears thin, elegant, and unmistakably vintage.

Every watch is thoroughly vetted, carefully described with complete transparency, and guaranteed authentic. This Omega is offered in original condition, representing an uncommon and stylish take on one of Omega’s most iconic model families.
