Hey. I am new to this place and need some help. Just bougt a vintage omega Geneve Automatic MEISTER on Catawiki few weeks back, and becuse of a busy time, i havent had time to take it to a watchmaker and have it check out. So maby some of you can help me. If its a orginal omega or not. Have postet some pic. Sorry about my english Thanks for all help. Christian
Perfectly original Omega (generic crown though). Movement is a bit rough and the rotor bushing and/or axle are worn so it will need to be serviced. https://www.omegawatches.com/planet-omega/heritage/vintage-details/14369/
yes, it is original, you will need and original crown, in this case is not expensive, interesting dial. congratulations!
This dial is often accused of being modified or cleaned up i.e. Not how it left the factory due to the unusual color. Miester is a German jeweler that had signed Omegas. You would not expect meister on a redial.
Okey. Thanks for all the feedback, guess i need to take the watchs to the omega store and hear what they have to say
They are not going to be able to tell you anything. An Inega owned store will not even verify it. I'm with @JimInOz as it's 100% original. My comment was directed at people that dismiss watches with similar dials as redials due to the color alone. The fact that you have a fairly rare Meister signature on the watch pretty much verifies the dial in my opinion. It's not something a redialed watch like this would have. Enjoy the watch! Get it serviced as the ring on the innercase back is due to the rotor being loose. This indicates the watch needs a service.
