··Melbourne AustraliaI recently purchased this and want to restore the little bit that's up with it but I have no idea if it has a model designation or where to start. All I know is an age estimate based on the serial, any more info would be greatly appreciated.
I'm enjoying a wee dram ATM, so off the top of my head.
A nice Omega Lépine 15 jewel movement. A vitreous enamel ("porcelain") with Omega "Paris" style Arabic numerals and gold Louis XV hands.
Movement looks to be a caliber 18''' but if you can measure the diameter of the gilded section it will be helpful.
From the serial number I would date the movement to about 1920, if you can show the case number it can be refined further.
It's a very nice example and deserves to be serviced and used.
