Hi Erich...I clicked the link but it would not come up. It says the page can not be found. So maybe sold? In any case, I so appreciate your help. Thanks so much!
I edited my post, extra ? At the end of the URL apparently, should work now.

I can't be the only one that is curious as to why it has to be so exactly the same?
I assumed trying to replace one with sentimental value.

I am simply hoping that someone who already owns a watch like this may wish to sell it. No need for rude assumptions.
Rude or not, it seems our assumptions were accurate.
Hi Dan....thank you for the good suggestion. That makes perfect sense. I did find the WTB section and read the pinned post information. From what I can see, it is a requirement to contribute 200 discussion posts before being allowed to add a WTB post. Is that correct? If so, I'm afraid that would make it impossible for me to post in that section.
Then I guess you had better jog on.

I assumed to replace one with sentimental value, that they have just accidentally destroyed

Hi...That exact model was given to my late Father upon graduation from MIT in 1962. Unfortunately it was recently stolen. I would like to replace it with the exact same one, strictly for sentimental reasons. Throughout his long life, my Dad was never without his beloved Omega.

This looks darn close: https://www.ebay.com/itm/177689931423 @ $1200. VERY much in need of service, and I hope the lugs are in good shape.

I did a google image search and came up with quite a few listings/posts, but without a size it isn't clear exactly what reference it is. But that is about as close as I could find.
Hi Erich....The ad did come up! It does look the same! I have asked about the movement, jewels and year. I'll see what he says. Thank you so much for finding this!!

Hrmph, got what he wanted out of me, then took off. Didn't even leave any cash on the nightstand. I feel used!

😂 At least give us a heads up you're leaving, never to return again!

I guess maybe OF received a commission? Not sure how that works exactly, but the OP apparently followed a link from this site.

Ah, so he DID leave money on the nightstand! I feel slightly less used 😁

Hi Erich...I was waiting to get the watch shipped to me before responding. I just received it yesterday. The watch looks exactly like my father's that was stolen. This coming week it will be brought in to be serviced, but it is running and keeping perfect time. I really appreciate your help in finding this model on ebay. I have looked there many many times, but never found the exact model. I'm happy to send you some "cash on the nightstand" if you can message me with your details. Your help has been greatly appreciated.

The amount of photographs in this post is insufficient. Definite Pho-Pox right there :-P

Money on the nightstand is a joke... But if you want to thank me/us for your help monetarily, please donate to the site! The folks hosting this site do so out of the graciousness of their hearts (at a bit of a loss is my understanding!), so donations are very helpful: https://omegaforums.net/pages/donate-to-omega-forums/#one_off

Wonderful! Happy to help.

I also encourage you to hang around, this is a great place to learn about a ton of watches, and catch the mental illness we all share 😀
