I’ve shown my two Brandt CCR movements on the MB before. While they share a number of earmarks with the subject watch, there are many visual cues which help identify them as railroad approved, which the subject watch is not. The motor barrel, 19-jewels, patent regulator. The one most notable earmark that stands out is that they both are marked
Timed to 5 Positions. The dials on both of mine are factory original 24-hour dials. Both are lever set which I suspect the subject watch is not. As to Omega-marked watches of the era of these watches being railroad approved? Could be, I suppose. But I don’t recall ever seeing an Omega that has the features that these Brandt’s have.
