The original white dial is in great condition, with soft patina throughout. The 14k solid gold case is in excellent unpolished condition, with light signs of use. The angles on the lugs are still very sharp. The crown is original and Omega signed. It's quite worn. This is a ref F6516, powered by a bumper automatic cal 344 from 1952. It just got serviced by my watchmaker in November 2026, it works perfectly and keeps great time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt measures 32mm diameter without crown, and 39mm from lug to lug.

This was required by US law for all watch (movement) imports, used from 1930's to 1970.

In many other countries it was 18k (Switzerland, France, Spain, Japan,...), or 9K for the commonwealth countries (UK, Canada, Australia...). For large manufacturers like Omega any kind of gold cases usually got produced in the country where the watch was sold. The movement got imported as raw movement, and other parts were produced locally in the target market.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe W14k Gold stamp inside the caseback: W stands for Wadsworth, which is the American based casemaker that made this case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe F6516 reference number and the case serial: This is typical for US made cases; Swiss made cases used different reference numbers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Omega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67990438248548,"sku":null,"price":29000000.0,"currency_code":"IDR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/1347\/3124\/files\/DSC03837.jpg?v=1793845965","url":"https:\/\/kabawatch.id\/products\/omega-14k-gold-bumper-automatic-subseconds-ref-f6516-from-1952","provider":"Kabawatch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
