Hello to all members.
I had a this watch incoming.
The seller he's not able to open it.he said is a 37mm..what do you think ,the dial is beautiful,isn't?

 

I'm not a super expert who can tell you the reference, but it is indeed a very attractive watch - the combination of the mirror polish arabic numerals and sword indices is sexy! It appears to be all original too. Very likely from the late 50s with a 30mm movement (28X series perhaps?).

 

Thanks, @byunjoe,yes ,caliber 283.

 

I've seen these referred to as "shy 10" dials

 

Can you explain what doesn't mean,thanks,Vitezi?

 

The reference is to the numeral font used on these dials. Notice the "0" in the number 10 has a smaller height relative to the other numbers. One of the definitions of shy is "less than; short of" as in "The height of the 0 is just shy of the 1 in the number 10 hour marker."

 

Thank you,interested,didn't know this.

 

Nice piece, congrats! I’m curious, the teardrop in the applied Omega logo, I haven’t seen that before. Is that part of the design, sentient patina or perhaps a crop circle?

 

Thank you Davek,indeed the watch is beautiful,the seller send a video,when the dial received the sunlight directly,the gilt on the hour numbers are shiny,very beautiful...as the teardrop I've noticed him too, but I don't know,i think is an original addition to the logo...Thanks.

 

Teardrop

 

If you can't look at the movement before buying I would avoid this.

 

I would go personally to conclude ,and check for everything to be ok,thanks for advice.

 

A better photo.

 

I didn't even realize it had a two tone dial in the first picture! It just keeps getting better
