Hello, and thank you for accepting me in the group! I recently inherited a gold watch from my grandfather. I think it's from 1957 but I'm not certain. Could anyone shed some light on it? Someone noted the omega symbol isn't plumb with the 12 o'clock marker. Is this a fake? It is very old for sure, and it is certainly 18ct gold.
Any information would be most appreciated!

 

It has Omega genetics so I don't think it's a fake.
The dial has been re-printed/re-painted at some stage in its life. This was common in the era the watch was born in as a watchmaker wanted to give the customer a shiny new looking watch.

Pictures of the back of the watch help. Also a movement shot will show the serial number for approximate year, and the case back should have the model number on the inside.
