·Dear all,
First off, I would like to thank you all for your contribution to Omegaforums. The site is an invaluable research tool most of all for us, the newbies in collecting Omega watches.
I am posting here because I need help to chose between two Omega vintage pieces. I am looking to buy my first Omega and for my budget I found locally an Omega Automatic from 1954 (based on the serial number) and one with a 266 calibre from the same year. I like the Automatic better because it is also waterproof, which is good because I am planning to wear the watch daily. But I am afraid the dial might have been repainted for it looks to good for its age.
What do you think based on the images attached? Which should I get? Does any of them look suspicious? Are they all original? Is neither of them?
Thank you all for your imput!
