·In Germany we call it "Autobahngold". It's a common 60-80s fake, often sold in Italy to German tourists...

Yours is an example of "highway gold" as @JimJupiter noted.
They were sold at small markets where tourist busses would stop.
Also, often at petrol stations where somebody who had "lost their wallet but needed to buy petrol to get to their dying grandmother" would offer a "Gold Omega" to a visiting tourist in exchange for whatever they could cajole out of the sucker tourist.
The watch bears many indications of a counterfeit well known to Omega collectors.

·Return it of you can. Almost surely it’s not even gold, despite saying 18k, so it has no value.

·To be clear. It’s certainly not gold either.
