It is a 1940s 2391-1 case. I haven't seen the same face on the thread (or anywhere else) . It looks to be in good condition for its age, I don't know if it has ever been restored or replaced?

Sadly it doesn't run at the moment, and it's one of the few watches on this thread that I wouldn't wear myself - I'm not a fan of the gold plate unfortunately. Not sure whether to polish it off, re-case it, or just store it away....

That's a nice watch! I would get it serviced by a competent independent watchmaker and wear it on special occasions. Leave the plating intact.

Not a common dial variant, in my experience.

Thanks for the feedback, interesting to know that it all looks original - I guess I'll keep it intact, and look into getting it running again. I might have to treat myself to a Speedmaster instead though to wear in memory of my Dad 馃榾

Some of the Omegas I have collected, not all are still with me.

Nice watches! But I guess the first and last ones have rather a 26,5 caliber - maybe a 23,4

I have an Omega 30t2 SC taken from a German officer during the Italian Campaign of WW2. It is in perfect condition. I ask if the soldier was dead and the owner said probably, that was in 1943. So I am assuming he maybe traded it for cigarettes? It's about 32mm with a snap on back case. It has second markings around the outside edge with a silver dial. What are these worth?

Here is my 30T2, a 10.4m mov' serial and a Dennison case, and it has 2467 stamped into the underside of the mid-case, below the 2 o'clock lug. My grandfather bought it new in the mid 1940's, and later passed it down to my mother. I've been the custodian for the last 8 yrs or so.

Yes it is, thanks, though interestingly I can find NO references online to the 2467 case reference. Not even sure if this an Omega number or a Dennison one?

The ref. numbers around 2467 (2463, 2465, 2466, 2468) are chronographs. So I麓d suppose your watch has a Dennison-only number.

Can you have it opened and post a pic of inside caseback? I think this would give to you some additional infos.
