·Likely a 28.9 movement, so googling for “omega 28.9” will show you a lot of similar watches.

Collectors love these watches. They are unusual in that both dials and movements have the signatures of both Omega and Tissot.
The dial on the original watch looks a little strange to me, as these were generally signed “Omega Watch Co.”, not just “Omega”.
Also, we would need to see if the movement was dual signed, as it should be.
Hope this helps,

··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...Hi guys,
I pointed this person here from FB. I did not want her to get taken advantage of over there.
As for the value and what exactly it is, this is something just outside of my wheelhouse.
I think the dial is stunning and original (and a singer), but it seems a bit modern for the time period unless I am wrong about when these where made. A new crystal (or restored) and this is a very very stunning piece with decent resale... I just don't know the value.
What is the view of an approx price range on this? Also, is the crown right? Is this a monopusher?

From what I have seen, the experts like to help people who have demonstrably tried to do some research themselves. As people often say, OF isn't a drive-by valuation service. So if you started things off by describing sales of similar watches that you have identified, I think that could stimulate more participation. You can also signal your seriousness by providing better photos, including of the inside.
