80’s Seamaster or 70’s Geneve??

moyet79 · Jun 15, 2019

Hi all,
Newbie here. Just get my first omega watch, here is the picture:

I felt that this watch was re-dial;the dial should be Seamaster, not Geneve...
The watch still have problem with the quickset day function, it doesn’t work at all. And sometime the minute hand doesn’t move ( but second hand keep moving). What is the problem? Any parts broken or just some tension spring or gears not in proper position?

Feel free to share your thought...

Thanks!

Honest answer? Borderline junk. Going to cost more to fix that it’ll ever be worth. The dial could well be original, since that case ref came with several dials but it looks like one of the date wheels has been replaced already and the dial clearly has major issues. It dates from the early 1980s, not really the golden age of Omega production. The 10XX movements can be troublesome and expensive to get working right in my experience. That is a money pit with little light at the end of the tunnel.
