Hi OF

I ran into this beauty today, and I need you gyus help to find out what ref it is.

I have been told from a good friend, that i looks like a cal. 320 with two sub dials, but what ref is it?.

And what should a price be for a watch like this?

I really appreciate your help.

Can that really be right - that nobody knows anything about this watch?

Still hope to get a helping hand - thanks.

Looks like a cal 320 from outside of the case, but the movement designation and reference number are both inside of it.

Can you get the caseback off? Without the right tools, might be best to take to a watchmaker.

An interesting watch. I assume the one dial that goes to 30, or is it 31, is day of the month. The other dial, along with the second hand and side buttons, seems to be set up like a typical navigation chronograph…but no "Chronograph" written on the face. ??

That said, I am admittedly very new to the field of watches in general and Omega watches in particular. 😀

Yes your new and not even remotely close.

There would not be a day of the month sub dial on a watch like this.

Chronograph is almost never ona watch dial. Chronometer means something entirely different and has to do with accuracy. That appears on dials from that period to today.

Running seconds are shown on the left-hand subdial, the centre second hand is the chronograph second hand, and the right-hand subdial is the 30 minute recorder. Without getting the back off, you’re not going to get much more detailed help than that.

This is a calendar watch with running seconds. 😉

Hi guys - thanks for the input so far.

I will try to get some better pictures with the caseback taken off.

Might be earlier than the 320
I haven’t seen a 320 with the three minute call markers
On the minutes chronograph dial
But I could be wrong

3 minute countdowns on sub dials were common on 40s and poss 50s watches - something to do with phone call tariffs if i recall

Long distance phone calls where billed in 3 minute intervals.

I am also leaning towards redial
Sub dials look off centre
I found this piece
An early 320 with telephone marks
Nine and three not missing
But I Will defer to the experts out there

Hi again

I now have more information on the watch - and I think I’m on to something interesting.

It’s a cal. 33.3 CHRO T3

Check out the pictures and see what you can get out of it.

Still hope you can help we with:
Price indication
Ref. Number

Thanks OF

Nice 33.3 with a nice, original dial. Don't know value, quite high anyway

Big red flag for me.

It is not possible to determine if it is a franken watch or sold to a country that due to import restrictions cased them locally.

It hurts value a lot IMHO
