Need help finding similar watch

So I recently inherited this watch and was told by multiple watch smiths that it was fake, but nonetheless I love the design. I tried looking all over the Internet to find the original it was based/scammed after, but to no luck. I found the watch band was the same as some old sea masters but not the watch face. Would be appreciated if someone could point me towards which watches used specifically this watch band design and what omega was similar if not identical to this watch face.
Thanks in advanced!

It's fake so there is no Omega that resembles it.

Do you know the omega that has that watch band though?

It's not Omega style, more Ebel or TAG, whatever it was copied from is irrelevant as it's a counterfeit bracelet that has no Omega provenance.

Many fakes don’t copy a specific model. They simply take generic design cues, some of which do and some of which don’t reflect the brand being faked and throw them into the pot, before sticking an Omega logo in various places.

It often is my possible to ‘find the genuine version of this fake’

Can you point me in the right direction of a watch that is ultra thin like this one, has big roman numeral numbers and has a similar watch band? I would be very appreciative.

Alright, thank you!

Neither the watch nor the bracelet is particularly similar to any vintage Omega that I'm aware of. I'd suggest doing a reverse image search using Google lens if you want to find something similar. Most likely it would be some sort of cheap fashion watch from the 1980s.
