    As the title suggest I need some help with identifying the authenticity of this omega watch I received from my uncle. I'm new to the world of watches and recently got into watches after receiving this watch.

    There seems to be a lot of uncles out there passing off fake Speedies. :)

    So many uncles....

    I must admit I find it comical that there are so many uncle posts of this nature. It seems to be the running joke. Almost every 2-3 weeks we see a my uncle gave me this watch post.

    Sorry to the OP, and I see that you are new here, so welcome. Hopefully you continue to visit.
