    I want to buy this watch, according to the owner the first owner was his grand father, who received it as a gift when he served in the Army.

    I am not able to see the mecanism, this are the photos that I have. Let me know if you need some more information to recognize model and year.

    Yes it appears real. We could give you more information if you could show pictures of the inside. Perhaps you have a watchmaker open it for you.

    Nice unishell Omega seamster. Model I am not sure, but it must be original watch.

    Great find. If ou want model number than you have to open the watch. This watch is opened from glass. Do NOT attempt to do it youself or someone that has no idea what unishell case is.

    How much does the seller want? The missing lume from the hands make a bit wary - it doesn't look very nice, and it may have ended up in the movement...

    Early 60's unishell (front loading) 166.0xx case with a caliber 56x inside. Looks honest to me with a cursory glance but I'd want to see inside before purchasing it.
