A shot of the inside of the case back might help.

I think it would just be known as a cocktail watch, they didn’t always have fancy names like Seamaster and speedmaster.

The scratches would be marks left from past watchmakers who were trapped inside the case, I mean past watchmakers who performed a service on the watch and scratched a note to themselves in case it ever came back. No real way to decipher them. On the bright side, it shows that your watch was taken care of over the years 👍

This is the caseback for my ‘44 Hamilton 992b pocket watch. It’s hard (as you know) to capture them all with a photo, but there must be 20 or so notations. The ones on the bottom are mostly in one person’s hand writing, and a bunch on the top are in another’s. They really tell a story about the two watchmakers who looked after the watch for many years. This watch was used on the CPR, so regular service was required, and obviously undertaken. If I could get more watches from the same time at the Winnipeg CPR, I bet I could create a watch collection based on their past watchmakers

You have an American market watch with a case made by Lutringer & Wittmer. Note the movement is marked OXG which is the US import code for Omega movements imported for casing for the American market.

There is no model name for these watches and no Swiss counterparts.

The scratched marks are watchmakers marks indicating service or repairs.

No, it was Norman Morris, who was the exclusive distributor for Omega from 1933 until ca 1980 who assembled them. He imported the movements from Omega in Switzerland and contracted with numerous manufactures, cases, dials, hands, etc in the US to produce complete watches for sale in the United States, many (most) were exclusive to the US.

As I noted above, imported movements were marked OXG which is the designated US import code for Omega movements imported for casing for the American market.
