路I'm not a newb, and fully appreciate this watch is a total gamble. I know the dial is likely not in nice shape under this very scratched and murky crystal. I know this means the movement could have moisture issues. I know it's only 33mm, albeit a thin case. I know the crown is not original. Etc. Etc. Etc. What I can say, is in my opinion it's legit Omega and not a fake, just a well weathered watch needing some TLC.
What I don't know, because of the very plain dial, lack of any movement or caseback shot, and general lack of description on e-bay where I bought it for a ridiculously low price, is:
-What case reference(s) could this be?
-What manual wind movement is likely to lurk within?
My movement guess was initially a 620, but the case and lug profile is all wrong. 620's are usuall in Geneve models with blocky lugs and stick hands. There is clearly no provision for a seconds hand, so maybe an earlier generation of what became the 620? I'm not sure what though.
When it gets here, I'll open it up and see if the guesses here are right or not 馃榾 I've got pocket money (for me) in this thing, honestly I bought it just because I'm curious and have a soft spot for the manual wind thin watches.
