I was handed this watch by my grandfather. Don’t have too much information about it except what I was able to find on ChatGPT. Can’t see anything similar online in images too.

Would be grateful if I were given some information.
If there’s any more information I can provide, pls let me know.

Thank you

Carefully snap the back off with one of these and take some pics of the movement and inside case back.

Beat me to it.
I didn't get one of those unfortunately and it is now sealed again. Is that absolutely required? I could go back.

Nothing is required here. You are seeking information. The writings on the inside of the caseback give valuable info that can then be used to help you further identify this watch. Your decision if it's too much trouble.

It’s hard to see much from the pictures provided other than the serial number, which seems to date the watch to 1931:

https://www.emmywatch.com/db/serial/omega/?num=7435199

It is possible that your watch is the very next one produced after the one in the advertisement that @Screwbacks posted. The main difference is that I think your watch has an original dial, while the one in the advertisement is a redial.

The information on the caliber is located underneath the balance wheel, but on your photos, this is out of focus and obscured. I’m not sure that the case back will give us any more information other than a case serial number. I would not expect a model number on a watch this old.

Looks like a beautiful heirloom Omega. You’ll need to find a specialized watchmaker to service it.

I was looking to sell it. Can’t open the link you’ve shared unfortunately, the website says not available in India.

I have nothing to contribute, just wanted to say this is a beautiful watch. Didn't know Omega ever made anything like this.
