·Hello people,
A non-watch collecting friend asked me for assistance in identifying this gold Omega wristwatch he recently purchased. Not being an Omega expert, all I could tell him is that:
* The movement number dates the watch to circa 1946
* The caliber is a 28.10
* Both of these imply that this watch is some manner of relative to the Centenary -- but whether the relationship is of a father, brother, cousin, uncle or whatever, I cannot say
I'm therefore posting to this forum of wise men in the hope that someone/s can help shed some light on this watch model and how (it at all) it is related to the Centenary.
Two items of note are that the bars are fixed, ie not sprung (which I find somewhat strange and I wonder if this is original to the watch), and that the caseback is not marked with a case number or Omega logo (ditto).
Thanks in advance!
David
