路I'm not into pocket watches but looks like enamel and double signed dial. Name below Omega is retailers name. That was common in early ages.
Nice heritage! 馃グ

路Nice heirloom!
The watch should be from the beginning of the past century, pre first world war. It has, you might have already guessed it, a solid gold case (14k).
As it is a heirloom, I would get it serviced and cleaned. A skilled watchmaker is able to clean the dial so that the hairline will be less visible.
During this service, I would get the minute hand changed as it has the wrong style.

路路Melbourne AustraliaNice Omega L猫pine from about 1913/1914 or so and retailed by Louis Fink-Gauchat who was active in Moscow in that era.
It has a vitreous enamel dial (cracked unfortunately) with "Empire" style Arabic numerals and Louis XV style gold hands.
The minute hand is a later incorrect replacement.
Movement looks to be a 18''' or 19''' L 15P.
What is the diameter of the movement?
