    I think it is a legit US market watch.

    Note the "14K Gold" hallmark in the pictures. Dial looks good too.

    Price is very high for what it is.

    A few things do not seem to add up, IMHO
    - dial seems to small for the case (3rd pic, right hand side)
    - the 5 and 7 golden markers do not seem to align correctly wit the index-markers (or it might be the pic)
    - seconds hand seems to be of an other colour (rose gold?), compared to the other hands
    - 'original dial'? Depending on how to define 'original'; I think a watch with this age should have some patina. Somewhere.
    - price? well, price....:cautious:
    - pics of inside needed

    I agree that the face is reissued for the same reasons that indicated Willem023, but also the indices at 11, 12 and 1 are not aligned.
    I have some doubts that the case is not Omega too.

    Agree with gator, US market watch, dial correct, just poorly refinished.

    Looks like an ugly custom case to me. Not a US case.
