    HI everyone,

    I have some doubt and would like to know your valuable opinion.
    I have Omega Geneve cal 1030 in nice condition except dial. Dial is generally in acceptable condition but some seconds markers and "Swiss made" letters missing, probably due to attempt of cleaning which went bad.. 1.jpg 2.jpg 3.jpg 4.jpg

    Please find the pics attached.
    What is your opinion : redial/reprint or not?

    It is my personal watch but in some moment of time it may be going for sale or trade off, so I'm thinking of restoring a dial, at least printing without touching a dial ground color?
    Any ideas/thoughts?
    Thank you.

    Yup, I'm sure it is original and not repainted. Doubt is : what to do? Should I try to send it for reprint/redial or not?
    It is not so easy to source such dial because it is hand-winding Cal 1030.... At least I couldn't find it...

    Please keep in mind that a dial has to fit the case as well as the movement. This dial may be correct for the movement, but may not be for the case. If the OP can list the case number I can tell them the correct dial and if Omega still has them - they often do.

    I know, but both have the same diameter, are flat and have the number 1620 on it. (and there is a question mark)

    Dials can be different thicknesses of the actual dial portion, and have different height markers - knowing the movement it fits and diameter isn't enough to be certain.

    Sorry guys for no response, I've been absent yesterday whole day, with no internet access.
    @tamura :
    http://www.urdelar.se/Dial, Omega Genève, cal: 1030 ? It is last resort because price is slightly higher than expected...

    @Skrotis :

    maybe I can send you PM regarding this?

    Dial is 29.5 mm diameter. Watch is cal 1030 case back ref should be 136.0099 but have to check once again.
