Nice watch in a lovely condition. You may already realise this but it is solid gold, is there anything on the other side of the caseback? A photo of the crown may also be useful though these are often changed during service.
There are a few places online where you can find the manufacture date by serial numbers and they suggest it was made in 1952.
Looking at the spacing between the Omega writing and applied logo on the dial I do wonder if the dial has been repainted at some time in the past. This does reduce value from a collector perspective.
Thank you. Yes, I was happy to see it was 18k after opening the caseback. There are no markings on the outer side of the caseback. I will work on getting a clear photo of the crown.
You are correct, the Omega markings give that part away as well as the Swiss made etc, guess I was writing without thinking !
You're right that there should be two external markings; these are most often found on the rear of the lugs however, not on the caseback. I think I see a clear mark at the bottom of the top right lug on the first picture and (possibly) just the shadow of one on the lower left one.
What is the number inside the hammer head symbol ( resolution isnt good enough for me to ascertain the number)
if you know this, then you can find out who made the case
desmond has a list of all the case makers that omega used ( mainly for constellation models) but there will be overlaps with other models
