    Thanks for the reply @Magnix ! :)
    You wouldn't happen to have a pic of the top of the box, would you? :whistling:

    Also, it's interesting the the typography in the 'Speedmaster' wordmark on the booklet cover is the more modern version than that of that time period (used on the dials).

    My Humble Contribution to this thread:
    Mostly 1950s/1960s Boxes and Papers. Still confused on what model would have come in that Brown Omega Box. The World May Never Know ....

    Anyone recognize these? Thoughts on era and authenticity?

    How about this one? There are no markings and the inner box measures ~13 cm x 10 cm x 6,5 cm. Because of the size I think it is for a gents watch.

    GentlemanQ I think the brown box is from an early sixties 321 chronograph

    This box was introduced to the Canadian resellers in the June 1949 edition of the 'Contact' magazine (Distributed to Canadian Omega resellers).
    Here is the article (in French) :

    Hi gentlemen,
    I got this box today and I would appreciate any thoughts you may have about it (time, model of watch originally in it, etc...). It came from Italy with a Seamaster 168.023 in it but I am not sure about watch and box matching:

    Its the standard box from the 90's :) I think it came around 1995 and was replaced by the newer one in +- 2004. So it didn't came original with the 168.023

    Thank you for the info, @Magnix. These two items came also in the box, might there be any relation between them and box or is this set all put together? Would Omega folder a booklet like that? ::confused2::

    The back of the booklet says CAL. 1152 - so this might be the hint - search for watches with this calibre!

    I noticed that before, thank you, but I do not know if that box with that booklet might have originally housed a chronograph.
