Bought on a whim and was told its a KL6610 with a 550 cal. That seems to me to be wrong, but wanted to ask you experts! I still have the chance to return, so want to make sure i'm not getting something totally messed up.

Thanks!

 

The only way to confirm is to have it opened up. Why do you think that's incorrect?

 

Thanks for the response! I just havent seen any KL6610 with the seahorse caseback and on Omega's website it says they come w/ a 560 cal.

 

That may be correct but the site isn't always complete and it wouldn't be the first time a seller provided the wrong information. As I said, the only way to confirm is to open it up (professionally, because it's a front loader).

 

Maybe it does have a cal 560 inside. The seller could be incorrect. Unfortunately, you will need a watchmaker to open that case.

 

Thanks all! Will do and report back lol

 

Actually - Is there any way of confirming the case # (is it called that? the KL6610) before i have it looked at?

 

It's called the reference number. There are some very knowledgeable folks here who may chime in.

 

It is probably KM 6610. The KL prefixes were only used for caliber 560 which has a date complication.

 

The watch looks pretty nice. Why don't you ask the seller why they think it is a 6610? They may be just guessing, in which case whatever it is is probably just fine.
