This Omega chronograph reference 2451 was only sold to Hungarian, Argentinian and Polish Air Forces. The reference is rare and seldom seen on the market. The dial, originally black, has now turned a olive green and its configuration is of military specification. Fresh to the market, the watch is in very appealing overall condition.
