    I have been trying to look for a 166.020 with a gold case and gold linen dial for some time now (or any other clean-looking linen dial gold vintage Omega), but cannot seem to find one with a reasonable price tag. Could this be the one?

    Thanks for all your help.

    BTW, that's not a linen dial, looks like a sunburst finish to me and I suspect it may have been a silver dial now with aged lacquer, not gold.

    Define reasonable.

    The dial definitely looked odd to me - I suspected it wasn't linen but liked the look well enough. This particular watch goes for about $1K.

    I did find a linen version a long time ago for almost half that, but someone else snatched it up. I'm not sure what the market looks like now.

    Think it might be a pearlescent dial with aged lacquer or just bad white balance? But it could be tobacco....

    I found another one with a similar dial. Also similar price.

    What I was looking for is something like the below watch, but it's far more expensive.
