I hope you are all safe 😀
Just found this 1952 Omega chronograph caliber 321 and would like to find the case that should fit this caliber. I guess it was a gold case but I won’t mind fitting into a steal case.
I really appreciate your inputs
Thanks
David

The movement dates approximately to the end of 1953 and the case reference is likely to have been 2466. The dial might have been redone in the past.

Wow thanks a lot, this picture will help to find the right case, well it will be SS case, Can you share some pics of the sides and back of the case, it will be very helpful. Thanks again

The lack of a case makes me think that it was originally a gold one and went to the smelter a long time ago.

Extract seems to confirm it was a solid gold case.

I guess finding the melted gold case it’s impossible
