·Hi, the movement seems an Omega 12" open face, and if the serial is 4348144 - the date is approximately 1915 or near.

·Case looks plated, and dial also much more aged than the movement , recased? This movement was used in countless pocket watches.

·I think if it were formerly a pocket watch, the seconds sub dial would be opposite the crown.

··Melbourne AustraliaI think if it were formerly a pocket watch, the seconds sub dial would be opposite the crown.
If it was a Lépine movement it would, but it's a Savonnette (Hunter style).
I think it's a caliber 9''' S 18P, introduced for ladies pocket watches in 1914 (fits in with the serial no)
Obviously re-cased much later with contemporary case/dial/hands.
