    Hello,
    My name is Alison. Sadly, my grandfather passed away last month and I inherited his watch. He was 96 and he served in both WWII (albeit the end) and the Korean war as a navigator on a submarine. When looking up the watch I found some military versions from around the 40s and 50s that were similar but not quite the same.
    I've attached some pictures of the watch. It is not on the original band, we don't know what happened to it. There's some faint numbers etched on the back just above the OMEGA that we think might be 964316.
    Any information you can give me about the watch would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Nice Watch, looks like a Calibre 30T2 Mouvement to me. If you want more informations, let the watch be open by an watchmaker and make pictures of the inside of the caseback and the mouvement.

    The dial has been redone at some point, but still a nice heirloom.
    Maybe a 23.4 SC inside.
