    You will really need to post more photos, including the caseback, movement, etc. At best those in the know can comment on the dial, but that is about it based on this single photo.

    Thanks for your response! I was mostly just wondering about the dial though if you can comment.

    Oh, nice. I've been watching for one of these. :)

    I am far from an expert on these, but the flat A is something that may stand out..

    Here's a similar one I have, ref 2181

    Sorry about my reading comprehension. Thread title asked about dial, but I overlooked that when I read through the post. I personally think the dial looks good, except for the "swiss made" not being centered. But I do not know how typical that may be, and I could not find an example of this model in AJTT.

    One thing I did see though is the 283 was supposedly created in 1949, and was in Omega Genevas.

    Awesome thank you! If I brought the watch in to Omega to request an extract from the archives, do you know if they would provide this info? Do they provide clarity on authenticity of dial, handset, movement, etc?

    Sorry, I do not know. I am not sure if watches from that era can be researched (but others here will know better). But do you have any pics of the caseback and movement? Those will help the real experts here give you better feedback.
