Bracelet bought separately and added by me. Fortunately it fits, and it is also Omega.
Doesn't run worth a damn but that's fine, I got it for a good price shipped from Argentina. Tool 105 should arrive more or less any day now.

Just arrived. More beauty shots of the 10 buck rust special.
Really need to work on that dial depth of feild. I think the phone can not focus past the crystal.
Still have two of these on the bench, which are from random parts. Some of the parts were almost as rusted as this. Interesting that the case is marked Hong Kong. Some of the other examples of this style watch also has the Hong Kong marked case. I think one was marked British Hong Kong.
These A Schild movements are easy to work on. The double train bridge allows for the wheels to drop in place.
Will see what the parts do overnight in Evap-O-Rust.

··Sunburst dial fanThis eBay acquisition arrived today, Albania to London.
Presently giving it a test drive but interestingly, to me at least, the 1504K movement has a quick date change function similar in change operation to the Omega 565, and it actually works.
Also signed crown and bracelet, so pretty pleased with it.
I have to say, having never had any particular interest in C case watches, I’ve accumulated two Connies, three Longines Admirals, a Marvin and this, not to mention my CWC military dial manual wind.
……… and slim

··Sunburst dial fanBeautiful watch! The flat link bracelet looks really nice on this one. I have not felt comfortable buying watches from Albanian sellers so far. How was your experience?
The watch had been a BIN for some time and it had been in my watchlist. I particularly liked the signed crown and bracelet. Although other 3003s came and went, no one seemed to be going for this and when I got to the stage of pulling the trigger, I was influenced by the fact that the seller offered a 14 day refund and, looking at his profile, he had good history/reviews and quite a few other nice pieces. We dickered about the price and I bought it. It was shipped by DHL. I’d previously bought successfully from dealers in Japan and Argentina.
TBH, my final decision was another late night impulse 😉
