Oh! That's a stunner! Looks all genuine to me, and I am sure members will fill in with more infomation. The dial looks just great for a watch from the 30's! @gatorcpa will most likely add some info here. Look at this thread in the mean time...

Disturbingly beautiful watch. The reference is CK 2048.

Is O. Cazzola your grandfather? these date to the late 1930's

Oh, yeah, value is quite considerable.

That version ( 1 pusher and crown reset )can be earlier. From 1936 on. Dial unmolested. If the numbers check out ( get an omega museum excerpt ) and it is serviced, value at Phillips auction ( they will take that ) could be around $ 30000. Kind regards from Australia. Achim

I enhanced yours picture slightly. I recommend to change the threads title as this is an important and rare watch.

I don’t have much to add. The thread from 2013 posted above has it all.

Here is a compilation of a few auctions of similar watches:
