I’ve just got this 1935 omega hand wind watch and am curious which caliber it is.

This one is very very pretty, I think, in a 9k Dennison case.

It could be a calibre 26.5 like the one in the attachment. The watch in the picture (a screen grab) actually has the pillar plate below the balance wheel marked 26.5.

That’s further than I got, google wise. Is there a site where you can compare movements to identify them?

Thank you! It’s the earlier 26.5 I believe as it’s 1935 by serial.

Thank you! That’s a beautiful one! Mine is slightly different in that the case is hinged, but otherwise very much the same.
