A solid 14k carat yellow gold Omega dress presentation watch. This is very much a classic and durable example of Omega dress watches from the mid-20th Century, in a good way. A simple and clean case design frames this classic Omega designed dial. At the foot of the dial, is the original “Swiss” printing. The Omega name is also printed in the same black stamping with the iconic Omega logo applied.

The watch is presented in good, original condition. The case appears to be unpolished, a bonus on these early dress watches. The lugs are sharp and crisp. There is a personalization on the snap back case back. It was presented for 25 years service to XLO. Ex-Cell-O Corporation (commonly known as Ex-Cell-O) was an American manufacturer of machinery and machine tools located in suburban Detroit, Michigan, United States. The company was in operation from 1919 to 2006.

The case is quite typical from a number of Swiss watch makers of being a US contract case. Meaning the movement and dial were sent over from Omega in Switzerland, and then a contracted specific case maker was employed in the US to provide the case, having been designed and approved by Omega. This was very common at this time due to high taxes and duties being levied on imports from Europe, especially on gold. This is also why it is a gold filled case not an 18 carat gold case. These were never made in Europe. In this case, the case maker was Wadsworth. They made cases for most US watch makers

The watch is powered by the highly reliable brass finished caliber 344 Omega bumper automatic movement. The movement was used across the board by Omega in a number of time only watches since its launch in 1952, making this watch the first year the movement was introduced. This example is in excellent condition and keeping very good time.

The watch overall is in good condition, and commensurate with a watch that is now approaching 70 years old. The dial is original and not re-finished, as is often the case with these mid-century dress watches. If you are looking for an affordable classic vintage watch with a cool piece of Motor City history that can be worn every day, then this will tick the box.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.

Really nice shoes
Size: 9, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
My husband enjoys wearing these shoes. Very classy looking. They fit well. They arrived quickly. He liked them so much he ordered another pair in a different color which have worked out just as well.

Way too narrow
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
I ordered a wide in this shoe, but it was still way too narrow. I had to return them. Otherwise, it looked like a nice quality shoe.

I usually wear 11.5's, but I buy 1/2 size smaller to accommodate for stretch. Leather relaxes.
Size: 11, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
5 STARS: These shoes are awesome. I keep coming back for more. I have major foot problems, have tried all kinds of shoes, orthotics, and inserts... but believe it or not, these shoes work better than any of that stuff. I wear them daily. I buy lots of them, for home, for church, and I'm getting my first pair of J&M boots today, for winters in Indiana... Brrrr

Great price great shoe
Size: 12, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Excellent shoe. Tried the Sebago penny loafer and the sizing was ridiculous. These J and M are sized perfectly. I’ve had them before and they wear like iron. Very comfortable right out of the box.
