    Hello All, I haven't joined just recently but I'd like to give someone the opportunity to win 10 points if they can identify my Omega for me. I've posted a pic of the face and will dribble other pics through if no correct answers are received.

    That's probably a fake too, and I bet if you show the back there will be hallmarks on the outside of the case.

    One of the most common 1960s fakes.

    OK guys, split the points between you.

    A last second snap buy while concentrating on other things.

    As expected, marked with the type of metal on the outside of the case. Dig that (Russian?) movement too! It sort of looks like a caliber 26x, right?

    Holy Thread Revival Batman!

    No, it's the venerable Adolph Schild Caliber AS1130. A sound little ticker, a shame it found it's way in to so many "homage" Omegas.
