Hello Omega lovers, I have this Omega that I found today but I can’t find the serial number on the movement. Does anyone have one like this and they know more about it? Thank you

The reference 511.0558 inside the case-back is what you needed to identify it, its a vintage ladies' model that isn't very popular or valuable but still has a solid mechanical Cal 625 movement.

Thank you for the info. As a female, I luck out finding these vintage Omegas and that’s all I collect except for the odd men’s Omega. I’ve never seen one without a serial number and that’s what you need to date it. I found it in a bowl at an antique shop today for $5. It’s valuable to me for sure and will be cleaned and serviced like my others. Thanks again. 😊

The serial numbers of that vintage were on a 'sticker' like thing inside of that large empty hole next to the crown wheel (the big indent next to where it says 625). Unfortunately this means that you don't really have a way to get the serial number.

The reference number has sellers claiming this from reference from the 1950s to 1990, so I dont think we'll have a good way of knowing how old it is unless someone with some good knowledge shows up! I DO think the sticker-version of the serial number DOES age it into the late-70s at minimum though.

Was going to note that the SN was on a sticker. Erich beat me to it.

I too am one of the rare female watch collectors. It does give one a lot of options with the smaller dials. So much of the popular stuff is quite large. Although I do find that my Speedy and Chronostop do wear small. My favorites are the 18mm ladymatics, which have the same build quality as the under 30mm 55x/56x.

The 620 and 625 are also 18mm. Down side is they are only two handers. The more rare 630/635 is a pretty decent three handers. For some reason the 67x and chronometer grade 68x tend to show up more often. I like having the sweep hand. Date not so much so. Automatic does not make much sense when one does not wear the watch often. The nicer watches do tend to be automatics.

The small cocktail movements like the 650 and the oval and rectangular movements, tend to show up the most often. Probably as the cases trended to gold and diamond.

Thanks for your reply. I don’t see any sticker but I’m thinking with the plastic around the movement it’s probably 70’s. I originally thought it might be a quartz or fake before I opened it, so it’s a bonus and welcome addition. Thanks again 😊

Right, I'm guessing the sticker got lost in a previous service in a cleaning machine/etc. The sticker is supposed to be in that big empty circular depression on the movement (next to where it says 625).

The sticker fell off. It was in the circular indentation.
