Hi,
Can some one help me identify this watch? Is this a White Gold watch? The stones also look like diamonds but I am not sure.

Pop the back off and you can tell us the composition. I bet it is not WG and I bet it runs by battery.

Well, got my hands on it. It is actually not Quartz. It has Manual Wound 602 Caliber.

There are plenty of quartz gold watches but it's got stainless steel back written clearly on it. There is less than a 1% chance this is WG and if it is the back has been replaced. The value is very low IMO.

Thanks for the expert opinion.

Any markings on the bracelet to signify a gold karat content? If those are real diamonds and emeralds there is a little value there, but the settings look very crude so mostly likely done after it left the factory. If the bracelet is gold there is scrap value there. There really isn't any collector value.

Could it be an aftermarket bezel? (white gold or something else)
But either way- why on a stainless steel case?
The SS suggests (to me) that the rest of the bling is unlikely to be real.

The look of the watch suggests to me that the whole thing is unlikely to be real (Ω that is).

stone setting very poor, unlikely real stones and definitely not OEM set Omega stones... aside from case issues. Dial looks original.. a modified watch to make it look like something that is not....it will bite you...

Caseback says it has a gold plated bezel but is otherwise steel which is strange as it’s not yellow. If you google Omega 511.0411 you get a vaguely similar but different looking watch with lugs using a very different looking 620 movement. I would say a few parts of this are real but it’s been heavily modified, and not particularly well. Since it has no value in the metal it has little value as a watch. Even if the stones are diamond which is doubtful, they have very little value, the market in melee diamonds is in the gutter at present.

Women’s cocktail watches are not really collected, even when fully original and tend to be valued at scrap value. I guess it could fetch ~$50 on eBay etc or less if as I suspect it is largely fake. Though the sticker on it looks right, I am now not convinced the movement is legit.

The case came in solid yellow 18l gold, yellow gold plate, and white gold plate. I suspect this started as the white gold plated version. Pretty much everything about the watch head is genuine (movement, hands, dial, case) with the exception of the added bezel with precious stones.
