Hi all,
I've been lurking a while but I'm now ready to start looking at watches to buy. Before I do, I'm trying to educate myself as much as possible so I don't get a complete dog or something cobbled together.
Looking at the following watch on ebay, I'm pretty sure this is a franken. I'd really appreciate it if knowledgable members could add to the following (or correct me if I'm wrong)

- Case number 1493 on the Omega Vintage pages says it should be 18k solid gold. This isn't.
- Looks like a re-dial (badly done). The minute markers don't line up with the line where the dial drops away
I'm sure there are many other tells and would really appreciate it if people could point them out so i can start to learn what to look for.
I'm finding it hard to work out what a good example looks like as there seem to be so may slightly different models. Any help on reference sites would be appreciated too.
Many thanks,
James
