Q: What is the Omega Day-Date Ref 5120.10 36mm watch? A: It’s a vintage, Swiss‑made automatic wristwatch featuring a 36mm case, two‑tone stainless steel and gold‑plated finish, a champagne dial, and a practical day‑date display. The link bracelet has a fold‑over clasp, making it a refined choice for both professional and casual wear.
Q: How do I set the time, day and date? A: If the watch has stopped, wind it by turning the crown clockwise 20–40 turns. Pull the crown to the first click to set the date (and in some movements the day by turning the crown the opposite way). Pull to the second click to set the time. If your movement doesn’t have a quickset day/date, advance the hands past midnight to change them. Avoid changing the day/date between roughly 8pm and 2am to protect the mechanism, then push the crown back in firmly.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: Water resistance on vintage watches is not guaranteed. Treat it as splash‑resistant at best and avoid swimming, showering or submersion unless the seals have been replaced and the watch has been pressure‑tested by an authorised watchmaker. Keep the crown fully seated and away from moisture.
Q: What movement does it use and what is the power reserve? A: The watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement. Typical power reserve for similar Omega day‑date calibres is around 40–50 hours, depending on the specific movement and service history. If you’d like us to confirm the exact calibre in this piece, please contact us.
Q: Will it fit my wrist and can the bracelet be sized? A: The bracelet fits up to approximately 20cm. We can size the bracelet for you before shipping, and additional links may be sourced subject to availability. Share your wrist measurement and we’ll advise on fit and options.
Q: Who is the 36mm size best suited for—Is it unisex? A: 36mm is a classic mid‑size that wears elegantly on many wrists. Historically marketed to men, it’s widely considered unisex today. The two‑tone aesthetic and champagne dial offer a timeless, versatile look.
Q: How should I care for the two‑tone gold‑plated finish? A: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, polishing compounds, alcohol/solvents, perfumes and prolonged exposure to moisture, which can accelerate wear to gold plating. Store the watch separately to prevent scratches.
Q: What accuracy and service interval should I expect? A: Performance varies with age and maintenance. As a guide, a routine service every 5–10 years is recommended, or sooner if you notice issues (running fast/slow, reduced power reserve, condensation). Keep the watch away from strong magnets and have gaskets checked if light water resistance is desired.
Q: Is it authentic and what is included with this piece? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authentic luxury vintage accessories and professionally authenticates every item. This watch includes a hangtag and warranty card as listed, plus our 12‑month mechanical guarantee and secure, insured delivery. If you need clarification on accessories, contact us.
Q: Can I replace the bracelet with a strap or source spare parts? A: Bracelet compatibility and strap options depend on the specific lug/end‑link design of the reference. We can advise on suitable options and help source parts (links, crowns, crystals) from reputable suppliers. Always choose components specified for the correct Omega reference to ensure proper fit.
