I have Omega De Ville Dynamic but when I search reference number 166.0163 it looks like Omega Geneve What do you think is this watch real or fake ? You can see picture of the watch

It's quite genuine, just a horribly refinished dial.

Font of the “Constellation” is truly remarkable. Made by artist in South Asia perhaps. 😉

Here are some tips to help you avoid purchasing a fake vintage Omega.

Here's a classic fake Seamaster:

First, you won't find "antimagnetic" or a jewel count on the dial of any Seamaster. Second, that's one crappy movement. Omega copper plated their movements since the word Seamaster has been used on the dial. Third, Omega never put the hallmarks (like the Ω WATCH Co inside the triangle or the 18K 0.750) you see on this watch's caseback on the outside - they were always on the inside.

Here's another example in a different case:

Bottom line: ASK BEFORE YOU BUY! Part of the reason this forum exists is to help less experienced people buy decent vintage watches without getting ripped off. We don't even charge! It's a FREE service!

2. Your watch is a disgusting counterfeit.
