    I am considering whether to buy this Omega watch I know its in terrible condition but I love the vintage appeal of it and I was just hoping whether someone can tell me whether its a genuine Omega or not and whether its been restored or there's a redial. I know the photos are not the best but I'm sure someone here with knowledge can help hopefully. And also interested to know what I should pay for it? And I don't suppose anyone knows what reference it is that would be very impressive!
    Thanks in advance

    It doesn't look very Omega-ish to me.

    What ever it is, it's not worth buying. Cant see any omega markings on the movement and the dial has too heavy print on it to be original. As a collector piece, it's worth nothing.

    It's a pile of shit.

    If you're even considering this you need to go back to researching.

    The fake Tissot strap is worth more than the watch attached to it.

    browse the vintage omega sub-forum. you will learn a lot there.

    and when you see another potential target, post it there to get more feedback.

    no need to post this one there though. i believe a consensus has been reached.
