Thank you for the fast reply
10729953 on the case back and 10772526 on the movement
Cant find a the 3 digit movement nr
Can’t find any thing
Makes sense, normally there is a reference number on the caseback. It this case you have the serial number of the case and the movement. This was often the case with Omegas from the 40s like yours. That's why you can't find this Watch. @mac_omega do you know this Ref?

Movement looks like a 30 T2 SC, which would be marked under the balance.

Serial number dates to ca 1946.

What is the diameter - my estimate is around 35-36 mm?

Then I might be able to search for the case style in my data base...

What colour should the dial be originally?
I kinda like this dark brown patina
But wonder how it looked like before

The nearest I could find is ref 2321 which has a cal. 30 SC and a "bezel opening" of 33 mm which would match a 36 mm case

Here a photo of an old Omega sales catalogue (print not of great quality)



IMO this is the model

A database - curated over years of research - is what separates the real collectors from the rest of us poseurs 👍
