Reference 2998 was in production for only 4 years (1959-1963) but during that time 8 case variations were made (-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -61, -62, Etc.), indicating how intensively Omega was updating their designs. The present -1 example is one of the earliest made: the -1 variation is found with serial numbers between 17’301’xxx and 17-761’xxx. The present piece bears movement no. 17’301’483, indicating it is one of the very first example to leave Omega’s workshop.

Ref Variations: 2998-4, 2998-62, 2998-1, 2998-2, 2998-3, 2998-6, CK2998, 2998-5, 2998-61, CK2998-2,
