·Hi everyone
I'm new here and contemplating my first proper Omega purchase, and i'm currently looking at a 6b/159, which after a bit of research is looking more like it's the real thing, it's just I have one small problem with it, the fact that it doesn't have any Air Ministry engraving on the rear of the case.
I've read all the stories about people removing the numbers after the war for whatever reason, but I've also read that None of these watches left Air Ministry stores without those numbers on them.
I suppose what I'm really asking is, how concerned should I be that they are missing on the watch that I'm looking at.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for looking
Paul
