1970s ANDREW GRIMA - About time collection - Omega unisex luxury watch
This is a very rare and beautiful design by ANDREW GRIMA Omega watch.
There is, a world of undiscovered Omega gems that are very much growing in popularity in the current trend towards unusual and interesting case designs and EMERALD cut crystal.
It’s not just brands like Cartier and Piaget that made fascinating and funky shaped watches over the past half century. Omega has several incredibly cool and unusual watches in its rich history, none arguably more interesting than those designed by or inspired by English jeweller Andrew Grima.
A man who surpassed all others as the man of the moment when it came to jewellery and that was Andrew Grima. He was regarded as the foremost designer of modern jewellery in the 60s and 70s and had an exclusive boutique on Jermyn Street in the heart of London’s Mayfair. His work was high end and bespoke and, fittingly for the regal part of Mayfair, St James’s, his clients included British Royalty including both Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret.
Here we look at the Englishman’s incredibly forward-thinking design.
Also a very important detail that the inside the watchcase is marked with the key and with the letter "A"! Please see the attached video.
If you are looking for a rare and beautifully kept vintage watch with a lots of beauty and charm, this might be the one for you.
A dream for watch collectors & also can be considered as a good investment!
