Help with identification

flyinrev · Mar 25, 2023

I bought this watch a few years ago. It was an “award” watch from a company dated 1979, which was engraved on a replacement back plate. Since there is no name on the face, I can’t tell the model name. Would like to get an OEM ba back plate. Serial number estimated 516716 (3rd number hard to read. Thanks!

What is marked on the inside of the back?

Many companies purchased specific "award" watches from Omega and they were produced in batches with blank casebacks and "blank" dials allowing for the addition of company logos.

As this was likely one of those, it would never have had an "Omega". marked caseback and it would have been original as supplied, not a "replacement".

This will resolve the identity issue.

There likely isn’t a model name. It’s simply an automatic Omega

The number from insdie the case back it's the case refernce number.. close to "model number". The watch is authetic but in my opinion not very desirable for collection.
