    Hello Omega friends!

    What do you think about this model?
    Is it legit? No Frankwatch?

    I have no Model Number and no look at the movement. What movement should be inside?

    Thank so much!!

    It is Omega Maison Fondee or Speedmaster Classic. Equipped with calibre 1110 (ETA 2892-2)
    Totally legit.
    PS: The way you are using caliper may scratch the case.

    That looks cobbled together like nothing I've ever seen before!

    Must be from the 80's :D

    Thank you both for answering!!
    Do you mean it is a Frankwatch?

    Here are some other pictures. The picture are taken by the seller.

    No I agree completely with the esteemed @No Mercy - that bracelet is a giveaway. I only commented on the looks as it is a weird combination of a lot of different Omega styles. I had forgotten about the Speedmaster Classic collection, believe it was from the 90's, so not the 80's... Surprised to see it in solid gold. As a collector's item it is, IMO, out of fashion and would probably be worth a whole lot more than the gold value, I would guess. Mind you, with a full 18ct bracelet that is an not unsubstantial amount of money.

    Bracelet ends and the connected bracelet parts are not of same width.
    Though the watch and bracelet are legit but not matching. If it is a bargain (which is unlikely as said by ConElPueblo), maybe just treat it as buying parts, a watch head and a separate 18k gold bracelet. IMO

    The bracelet doesn't go with the watch - it's for an 18k gold Speedmaster series, so ref.'s 31915000, 31935000, 31945000, and 31975000.

    Sorry, the pictures are off focus. The watch is at the bank safe. I shall go to the bank to take some better pictures and to reconfirm the ref. & markings of the bracelet.
    Thanks for the info. Archer.

    No - the references above are for Speedmaster Professional models.

    Hi, today I went to the bank and checked the ref. of the bracelet of the 18k Speedmaster Triple Date Moonphase . It's ref. is 1489814 (11) , which is close to the subject bracelet's ref. 1489/812. They are of the same kind and are interchangeable for 18K speedmasters of the same period in 1993/94. IMO

    Well they are not the same because the end links are not the same. There's a (good) chance that trying to fit one complete bracelet on the other watch simply won't work without getting the correct end links. The automatic Speedmasters tend to have 19 mm lugs, where the Speedmaster Pro's are 20. In fact the 1489814 calls up an 18 mm width...so they are definitely not interchangeable as is.

    Please pardon me for being so stupid! The suffix of the ref. denotes different end pieces.
    Thanks Archer.
