    Some-how or rather, like it or not, we have to thank eBay.

    Without eBay, we would not have discovered there are so many extra-creative brain-dead talents in this vintage-watch world of ours.

    Thank-you.

    It is a prototype alright - the question is who put together the prototype.

    Dial and hands are certainly wonky on that one. Below is the "official" Omega picture for Ref. 135.0042.

    I've seen Omega movements with no serial numbers before. Could have been a factory replacement cal. 601 that was used to create this Frankenwatch.

    Certainly not military issue as claimed,
