··ΩF InvestiGatorNot an Omega case. Delbana is another watch brand. Dial is refinished or replaced. Movement is Omega cal. 30T2 from around 1942-43.
Very low value piece.

·I like DelBana. Not sure I would mix an omega movement into a case though. So many of these nice movements were pulled from scrap cases.
There was a point toward the end of the mechanical dominance, bit before the quartz crisis where a lot of Swiss movements were being placed into 'Hong Kong' manufactured cases.
A Schild movements may not have the finish and polish of say an Omega. These did come in different grades of finish.
Before all this IP nonsence, Movements were sold bare. So anyone could case them in the destination country. Ideas back then were not commoditized. People were able to borrow things from prior generation. Then corporations became immortal.
