Real.
Dial may be re-finished, can't tell from that pic.
Other than that, it's just a locally cased gents Omega watch, maybe from ca 1950.

Font is 1980s onwards so it has deffo been refinished. Serial date is late 1940s, circa '47-'48. Case has non UK 9K marks so maybe Aussie or other former empire place?

Thanks, the guy wants $900 aud for it, is this fair or over valued you think?

What would you say is a fair value?
The value is mainly in the gold, which is only 9 karat. You will need to estimate that for yourself.

Irrelevant, I wouldn't buy it for any money, there are better watches for maybe a few dollars more.
