    I wonder a little about this Omegas. This is two different Omega watches. I don't now anything about them except that they look authentic. The first is a De ville automatic and the second is ? Is it a pocket watch conversion? It has about the same size a dynamic .

    Ok, let me preface this as being a newbie. Here are my thoughts, someone please confirm or deny my statments so I can learn. The Deville movement seems off to me, never seen it movement held in by "gunk"/plastic quite in that manner on a Omega. The second appears to be a redial first. Omega signature looks like it is slighlty angled. The movement appears possiblily to be an early Omega movement that was recased, hence the redial. Am I close or totally wrong?

    Deville looks legit , movement is a ladies cal and common for the style and period to have this set up.

    That can be just right . It's not a very nice looking watch :eek:. And the other could probably be a re-cased pocket watch conversion . The more i look the more i think it is? Does anyone recognize what movement it has?

    If it was an Omega movement it would have the calibre and serial number stamped somewhere, wouldn't it?

    The movement does look like a pocket watch movement but there is no serial number. Shouldn't at the very least have that?

    As noted using a plastic movement spacer in these watches was not unheard of. Another example:

    Although this is a manual wind version, as you can see the plastic spacer is a genuine Omega thing.

    Second watch is a put together. Case is fake, but movement genuine. S/N. Maybe lower grad didn't have this or mayber under the dial. Caliber may be under the balance.

    Here's a similar movement, but higher grade
