Hello,

I have recently found this watch for sale but I'm not sure that the 1012 movement has his place inside. Is there something you guys see suspicious?

Thank you,
Adrian

To me, this looks like either a watch that was "restored" by Omega, or it was one of the Watchco versions. The case looks like a recent spare parts, that dial and hands are Luminova and not tritium...

I don;t see anything wrong with it per se, but there's a chance it might not be an original watch, but a 1012 movement that was transplanted into this case from a less desirable watch.

Comes with some mixed feelings, for a 3500 eur watch indeed there are some question marks.
