While browsing a local (russian) Craigslist-type website I've found a listing for a "1947-1949 Omega".
Seller says that the watch runs, and the movement was serviced, but I will try and check it out in person.


The movement looks like a 23.4SC and the s/n says that it's from 1947.


Is this watch authentic? The price seems too good to be true (<150$)for a 75 year old Swiss watch, but I'm not that well-versed in vintage watch pricing.

thank you very much in advance, and sorry if my English is rusty

 

The watch is authentic ..

 

Looking at the dial though, I think you have to ask yourself whether your $150 or whatever would be happier doing something else. Sorry to be blunt.

 

Reference marked inside, 2523.

 

It’s in terrible condition. Not worth buying at almost any price unless there is a specific part you need. Although I’m not even sure what parts are worth saving.
