Hey all, my mom had my grandpa’s omega bumper restored. I haven’t removed the back of the case to check anything else, but any help on ID’ing this?

Can we at least see the back too? Maybe a side shot?

You're not giving us much to go on here.

With only the single scan to go on, I’d guess 28.10 or 30.10 SC bumper auto.

I’m going to suggest you look here:

https://download1593.mediafire.com/...1955+Norman+Morris+Omega+Catalogue+Part+1.pdf

Case looks to be Ref. G6213, but with the dial shown from a Ref. 6017. Dials were mixed and matched by Omega on many models.

To be sure, we will need to know if the case is gold-filled. However, this catalog shows many styles came in both gold-filled and solid 14K gold. Most of the cases in this catalog were US made national production models.

Hope this helps,

Nice to see a list of American style case refs.
Would be nice to have a sticky to such ephemera links. Problem though is such links often get broken or moved.
