Was considering picking one of these up... but I'm not sure what the "A.M." on the caseback refers to. Most of these military vintage Omegas seem to be inscribed differently. Want a WW-II or military watch to replace my split up/down chrono Heuer...

Is this a re-lumed/repainted dial, or original? What's the market value I should be paying?

Could someone please advise? I'm not an expert on vintage Omegas; know more about modern ones..

Thanks!

 

Redial I think. The AM is most likely an owners initials. Hands are mismatched.

Am could be air ministry but it's not marked like any others out there.

 

Yeah that's what I suspected; Lume seems intact. How much does it impact the value?

Thanks for the help - Idk if the fat arrow means anything now that it's been confirmed refinished.

Any thoughts on my other thread? The Broad Arrow Seamaster (vintage) I have?
