··Steve @ ΩFThanks. That's useful.
I might, for fun, make a website we can use which makes it easy to check whether a combination of details (dial + movement + etc.) is valid. It could show all valid dials as well.
Would this be helpful do you think?
Take you 10 years 😗

·Yeah that website is great.
But I'm imaging a simple UI, something like this:
Brand | Model | Case | Cal | Jewels
or whatever
Basically you input a few values and it shows you faces some other useful info.
Or a search box for serials.
That sort of thing.
A simple way to search to see if something makes sense or is obviously fake.

This would rely on you having access to huge quantities of 100% accurate data.
Omega do not have all that data in an easy to use, publicly searchable tool... that should suggest to you how complex task this is.

I think you'll find that Omega's back catalogue runs into thousands if not tens of thousands of references. That combined with sometimes many, many dial options per reference leads to a task not be lightly undertaken.

·maybe you could call it the Omega Vintage Watch Database.
maybe this will help with some inspiration: https://www.omegawatches.com/planet-omega/heritage/vintage/

That one, for some reason, almost never works for me..doesn't return easy ref numbers, or gives error msgs, etc. Like omega is not too keen or doesn't care enough for it to work (well)

·I have read that Omega had as many as 1,600 different models in production at a given time. And given the fact that the most authoritative sources (Marco Richon's A Journey Through Time and the Omega vintage database to name two) are prone to blatant errors and that learned collectors with years of knowledge and experience frequently disagree about many things, I'd say this project counts as ambitious.
