Hi everyone, I'm brand new on this forum, although I have been using it to read up on a lot of vintage omega's, I've recently acquired a 1982 Omega Speedmaster Professional and I've had the archives pulled so I have no questions about that, but I'm trying to identify this beautiful timepiece. I can't seem to find the dial anywhere online. From what I can tell so far with the serial number is its from the late 50's, the reference number on the caseback is 2397-1 and caliber 267 movement. I appreciate all the help and advice everyone!

 

Well the dial has been redialed so that's probably why you can't find one exactly the same.

 

From what I've read on here that cuts the price of the watch down, I paid 500€ for it so I don't feel like I exactly overpaid for it. It was a quick purchase but I was immediatly attracted to the watch and it seemed quite cheap.

 

If you're happy with the priced you paid then just enjoy the watch.

 

I do like the watch very much, it's a nice elegent looking piece, I was just looking for information from this experienced community and hoping to educate myself a bit. These watches really interest me and I need to learn much much more and prepare myself for the future of this hobby

 

I had no idea for example this watch had been redialed ‍♂️

 

I dont think it says 2397 in the back more something like 2837 maybe?? or 2937:
