Congrats on the new purchase! Appears to be an Omega Ref. 2849. If so it should have cal. 503 inside. You will now for certain once you have the case back off. It will be written on the inside. I don't ever recall seeing a 2849 double stamped with Turler so that's pretty neat. Speaking of the case back I believe yours is replaced. The crown has definitely been replaced and is wrong for that reference but shouldn't be too hard to find a period correct one. Case looks good as well an not overly polished from what I can see.

Looks great. Not many people rock vintage watches in my country and if i see a person wearing a vintage Omega on the street they have instant respect from me😉
