·Hello forum,
My friend recently inherited this watch from his grandfather and asked me to take a look at it. I don’t know anything about Omega watches as I’ve only really been into seiko’s. I was very skeptical of its authenticity when first placed in my hands. The band & case back was ringing alarms. I opened up the back and found a beautiful movement.
The case back had 166.041 stamped in the back along with some other markings and 2 possible service markings. The movement caliber read 565 & with a serial number starting with 28xxxxxx, puts the movement around 1969 online sources say.
Now comes my question for all you amazing people, how much of this watch is authentic? The case, the dials, crown & case back ect. When I google image search this watch I cannot find a dial with all 3 exact markings as mine (automatic, seamaster & geneve). Same with the dial colour. If there any other thing I can look for to help let me know. I have attached some photos of the watch that I hope will suffice.
Thank you all!
