    .... advertised on chrono24: an Omega 2348 from 1945 for 1650Euro. Private German seller. Watch comes with original box and papers...

    According to the serial number the watch should be from 1946, or?
    Were there already applied Omega Logos on the dial in 1946?

    Asking the competent community for help!

    cheers,
    Giovanni

    I'd like to see those original box and papers. Might be the photo but hour hand looks a bit weird...

    The first Omega with applied logo was the Centenary in 1948...

    I think the hour hand is pretty fine (see other picture)...
    There are no original papers, only a booklet from 1952 about the cal. 30...
    Do think that the watch is genuine?
    I have the feeling that the movement from 1946 was recased and matched with a dial from early 50s... what do you think?

    Yes, it is.

    That's a long shot from what's stated in the first post: "watch comes with original box and papers". Is that a seller's claim?

    Smells fishy, plus wildly out of price.

    Yep, bit strange... the watch is presented as a "full set"....
