·I mean, it has obviously been absolutely trashed which suggests it ain’t real. But there’s always something in the back of my mind that says, “What if?”
Thoughts?

·Hi everybody, first time poster here...
Iv got an omega seamaster 2541model, but it doesn’t have a serial number on the lug. It does have a star logo (made up of 5 lines) on one of the lugs though. Does this indicate it’s fake?
Kind regards

·Hello new members...
Welcome to the OmegaForums.net!!
I have specifically created this thread just for the newbies who come on here after they have been given a watch buy their uncle's uncle twice removed OR they have bought what you think is a legit Omega off good old flee bay!
The idea is you post your watch here and it is discussed by our panel of experts, who I might add, may say few choice words like 🤬 and 🤬 or maybe 🤬.
The will endeavour to be as blunt as possible, but getting you the answer you are looking for.
The main idea is this..
It will remove the countless new threads asking 'Is my watch fake?' or 'I was left this by my dad's dad's dad from 1860'
Any new threads will be merged in to this one as of now.
Thanks very much.
The OF Management & Moderation Department.
Fire away!!

·Hi guys,
also my first time here. I bought this watch from a presumably retired watchmaker on a flea market for EUR 250,00. From what I saw it looks like a Ref 14765 SC-61, I did not get the chance to take a look at the movement yet. What throws me off are the hour markers and the missing "Swiss made", although seeing the latter could be obstructed by the plexiglass (which looks like it was redone).
Does this look authentic?
Many thanks in advance

·Hi guys, spotted this on Catawiki and EBay too (300 positive feedbacks). From Lithuania, listed on Chrono24 as well, but no feedbacks yet (listing around 100 watches). 3600$ for a Speedy 1995/96 - but can go down to 3'200$. I'm in doubt, but dial and movement seem legit. No papers, no box, doesn't know when last service. What do you think? https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Mens-Omega-...sh=item33ea53c786:g:7Z0AAOSw28pa4fR0#viTabs_0

·Hi guys,
Please can you advise me if my Omega Seamaster 2541 quartz is real....
I’m worried about the following things on it...
- no serial number on the lug, it only has a star on it made up of 5 lines ( Iv read on line this could be a quality control marker)
- the date is gold not white
- the helium valve dosent have the logo on.
Please find attached some pics
Many thanks in advanced 😀

·F firehat
I'm wondering what you guys think of this one. I have not personally seen this watch and my wife is going to check it out tonight. I have a (real) Speedmaster but am not nearly as familiar with a PO and how it should look. Any thoughts?

··Melbourne AustraliaQuite obviously a fake. The tag supplied lists the Chinese Factory that made it, i.e. JH Factory. That and OM Factory are the biggest producers of Omega fakes in China
Really?
I suspect the marks in the case indicate that it was made by Lang Louis SA, Route de Fontenais 66, 2900 Porrentruy.
That's actually in Switzerland, not China.

The watch has a correct Omega quartz caliber for that model. Serial numbers on lugs may not have been done at that time (1993) and the He vv may have been replaced at some time (I don't know if they were stamped).
The little star has been mentioned as a QA or acceptance mark made by Omega. I've seen it on genuine Omegas but never on fakes.
I know bugger all about Seamaster Professional 300s, but this one looks OK to me and nicely aged.
Hopefully some of the dive watch gurus can give you some better advice.
