Is this one from 1934 a redial?

BCHH · Oct 21, 2020

I came accross this beauty from 1934 but I have my doubts about the dial. Everything else looks as it should and it has some nice patina, but I can't take my eyes off the logo.😒

Am I the only one who thinks it looks weird or is it normal for a watch this age to have a logo that doesn't look 'perfect'? Opinions?

Either way, looks great.

I've always like this era for style

The written Omega text looks very dodgy, even more so than the logo, at least to me.

The font used in these days was indeed curved but very well aligned written and printed. This does not look aligned at all! Subdial looks very off as well, IMO.

An example:

The movement and the case do look convincing, but this dial... 😒

That dial does look horrendous. @Rud99 I think your dial is refinished too because your small seconds printing does not fill the space provided for it. Looks a lot better than the other one, though.

Thanks for the example. I think I'm gonna stay away from the one I found😬

True, I didn't realise it. Makes sense!

I think the logo could have been erased during dial cleaning and someone had a go of painting a new one in its place.
Coincidentally, I have a 1934 Omega too and it too has lost the logo. Now only a faint outline shows.

yes, this!

Same here. Dial original. Sub dial fine. Logo and writing redone. Maybe after a few shots of an alcoholic beverage, to calm the nerves..... Kind regards. Achim

FWIW, I don't think this one has been redialed. IMO it would have other tells than a too small subdial print.
