For anything case back related, I suggest using a socket wrench and superglue... Works for me every time. Some glue a nut (stop it, you know what I mean) to the case back and use the socket wrench on that, but I just glue on the socket and click that on the wrench. Nearly no chance of anything going wrong.
As to the watch, it's a post 1953 watch (modern logo) with a non-Omega beads of rice bracelet. If forced to guess, I'd say it's a bumper automatic, not a 491, as I believe that the dial text on those are closer together.
@ChrisT70 - do you feel a slight knocking sensation from the movement when you gently shake the watch from one side to the other?
