History During the early 1960s, Omega produced a wide array of elegant, manual-winding dress watches that prioritized clean legibility and reliable performance. The reference 14926-63 SC is a classic example of this era's design language, featuring a nicely proportioned 35mm case and dauphine hands. It is powered by the Omega Caliber 285, a robust manual-winding movement from the celebrated 30mm family of calibers, known among collectors for their durability and excellent timekeeping capabilities.
