Inherited a vintage Omega from my father and took it to a watch repair shop who said they thought it was ~60-70s mechanical Omega, likely a Seamaster but they didn't seem super certain. Does anyone recognize this particular model? Looks as if the backing was replaced at some point.

Thank you!

This is what is known as a Technical Dial. Some say Seamaster and some don't.

It’s simply a vintage Omega. Nice dial.

It’s has the shape of the 34mm 136.011 used on the seamaster 600 but from your pics it looks like it may be the smaller 32mm 136.012. This would make sense as these are often seen with dials bearing no model name

Very nice example As noted, depending on case diameter, it's probably a 136.011 usually marked as a Seamaster, or a 136.012 usually marked as a Genève, both housing a robust caliber 611/613.

The "Technical Dial" models are particularly sought after.

A perfect example of when 'less is more.' Really nice.
