Reference 2486, along with 2471, 2606, and 3944, showcased Omega's cal 381 triple-date moonphase movement . . .
. . . from the late '40s thru mid-'50s. These were designed and manufactured in-house, unrelated to other similar movements common at the time.
Not my cup of tea; Andrew D was a fan, though. They're difficult to collect as so many have been re-dialed. Why, I don't know. But there seem to be an awful lot of refinished Cosmic dials around.

Thank you so much Art....
why don't you like them? they remind me a bit of the Rolex Padellones S.
Not much for pointer dates in general . . .
. . . and also not much for calendar indications that have to be manually set every month. As far as I know, Omega has made only one perpetual calendar wristwatch, and that was in the '90s. Art
that’s sad...I don’t even think the guy knows what he took !
I’ve never seen a Farsi calendar Omega earlier...will watch out for it Art. Best, Mahesh.,
You're right about the thief not knowing what he's stolen - the watches were lifted . . .
. . . at a Beverly Hills restaurant. Target of opportunity, it seems . . .
It's sad. its a beautiful watch.
Size is slightly larger than the normal cosmic. here is mine. I know how I'd feel if I lost mine. ...
