    Dear members.

    Long time ago I bought a 30t2 SC movement coming with dial and hands which I think an original set with no case. I put it in a 2179 case and wonder what case ref that one should be in.
    Your help is appreciated.
    Best regards.
    Hoi.

    Years ago I emailed Omega with some caliber and s/n's and they were able to tell what case they fit. Gave me the case numbers on 4 movements

    Give that a try, but don't know if they will do it anymore

    Hoi,

    dial and hands look like the ones on the UK military watch with the light alloy case...
    just a thought

    regards
    Erich

    PS: please don´t forget the numbers and additional photos of your 2189 - when you have time send it with PM

    Thanks Erich.

    I found 2292 33mm case with a snap back is the best match.
    Will try to find a case for it and in the mean time, it has to stay in a 2179 like a hermit crab in a waterproof shell.:D

    Too bad. I emailed and asked back around 2009 and heard back the next day with the case numbers. That and where the movements/watches were originally were sold

    Funny that a movement sent to Saudi Arabia. Ended up somehow in Miami where I bought it off Ebay. 343 bumper

    Guess to many started asking and they figured they could now make money off it
