Hello all,
New guy to the forum and I need your help regarding this Omega ref 2639-9.
I recently bought it on a local auction in Sweden. It´s in good shape and to me everything looks original. But I'm really not a specialist on Omega so I would very much like to have your opinion. Have any of you seen this particular dial before? I have seen similar bullseye-style dials but not this one. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Strap is after market. Thank you in advance for all your expertise.

I would like to see a straight-on photo of the dial before making any judgments. Some of the minute markers look longer than others but I think it's from the angle of the photo causing distortion through the crystal.

 

Thanks for having a look at it. Here´s a straight-on photo. View attachment 503177

 

It's a redial, the logo is wrong for the era this watch is from.

 

It's a redail, and the seconds hand is replaced, it's to long.
The seconds markers should be closer to the egde. Black area to large, shouldn't "touch" the hour hand. Wrong Omega symbol for a watch that age, and it might be of a little to the left
To name a few of the most obvious wrongs...

 

Thanks for input. Much appreciated.

 

Redialed Frankenwatch. Movement cal wrong and younger than the case

 

Redone dial, movement should be a cal. 265 or 266

 

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated. Just curious, what more obvious wrongs are there?

 

Ah, I see. Thanks for the info!

 

Not enough hair on that arm !

 

I guess we cannot all be cavemen. Anyway, the info above was very valuable. I see my watch in a different light now. Many thanks guys.

 

Don't look at it with collector's eyes..... look at it with fashionista eyes, it is an attractive, very wearable watch.

 

Very good point, thanks.

 

What on earth has been substituted for 'SWISS MADE'?

 

It looks weird in the pictures but that is due to the dome of the glass. It actually says SWISS MADE in a clear font.
