As discussed in my previous thread, an unfortunate accident lead to the loss of a family Heirloom Omega

https://omegaforums.net/threads/help-identify-vintage-omega.107984/


I’m looking purchase a similar one but before dropping $1,750, I’m looking for thought on the quality and authenticity of this item. Can anyone help?

 

The dial is a later service dial. The Omega logo should be printed and the hour markers should be solid gold ones. The minute hand is to short and doesn’t reach the minute markers.
Not worth it at all, pass.

 

By the way, I think the watch you lost is a ref. 2581 and not a 2374...

 

While I am a newbie when it comes to vintage watches (but learning a lot here) there was something about this item that made me feel uneasy. Thank you!!

 

Interesting. I’m going to have to dig in to this further. I’m intrigued.
