··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...This was before model/reference numbers.
9 million serial number should be an easy google search to get approx age.

··Melbourne AustraliaIt's simply a "Gentleman's Omega".
It may have had a "model" appelation for catalog purposes, but finding it in a vintage catalog takes knowledge and experience.
The number in the caseback is a case number and dates the watch to about 1940+ or something, but I can't make out the numbers.
The movement number is of similar age, anywhere between 1936 and 1950.

·Thank you!
Is it too much of a 'dog' for purchasing? I like the style but it does have a lot of wear. The seller really hasn't put any detail other than its manual and works! I don't think he is clued up on watches.
Would love your opinions on condition of it?

··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...It’s not a horrible price at all if you would wear it.
The question is how much would you pay for a better example and does that existV
?

·Doesn’t look redialed. Hands match the dial markings.

I would wear it to be honest, not as a daily though. I'm looking to keep it for long term, possibly pass it down to the next generation. I've not seen many in this style, guess my thoughts are, I'd like it original, if it gets too bad, I could always get it polished if I REALLY had to as last resort
