·There are omega serial number charts on multiple internet sites if you search. Yours is somewhere around 1910-1915. If your watch has sentimental value, you will need to find a watchmaker who has a good supply of old, scrap watches and movements. I had a small Omega pocket watch from the same era that I needed one wheel for and I finally tracked down a person who specialized in pocket watches, who dug through his stash of parts to find the wheel that I needed. I spent a year on the project and when I was finally done, it cost more than the watch was worth. Unfortunately, I had already showed it to my son and he really liked it, so I told him that I would fix it for him.
Yours is much worse, and a lost cause IMO unless there is a compelling reason that you have to restore this exact piece.

·This watch was made in 1914 - therefore an antique as it's over 100 years old 😀

First, find a good watchmaker who has the ability to fabricate the parts.
Second, find another and use it for parts.
Third, send it to Omega for factory restoration. For $1500, they will restore it as new and fabricate any parts they do not have.
If this has no sentimental value, then don't bother with any of these alternatives... there's no point.
