    A friend has this watch and I just wondered what model it is and any other information you can give me:

    If that case reference is 2311, from what I can deduce from the pictures, then this is what the OVD has to say about it:
    The watch picture there looks very similar as well.

    Thanks Mazen :)

    So, are there similar type dials on the 30T2 or is this one?

    Thanks

    The 30t2 would have had dozens, or even hundreds, of different dials.

    It's a non-chronometre scientific dial. Much more valuable though if it was a chronometre.

    And it's not a ref. 2311 - wrong movement.

    mac_omega is the expert on these manual wind watches.

    Would be good to see some of those. I like the age on this dial though, maybe a bit too much patina though..Can't decide ::confused2::

    I think it could be a ref 2324 if it has a diameter of about 35 mm - the larger brother with similar case design is ref 2325 measuring 37,5 mm though.
    I assume it is the smaller one from what I can read (better guess) on the blurry picture of the inner case back and from the proportions of the case parts...
    Dial has the same design as used frequently on the 30 T2 SC Rg chronometers, it is a nice design but dial has aged unevenly and is not in good condition.
    just my thoughts on this

    Case is a 30T2SC/2324/5 - just checked. For me the dial affects the overall appeal of the watch.

    Thanks for all your info mac, you got lots of information even with those pictures!
