Dear OF members,
My name is Leon,
Today i receive an Omega with big Logo on back
I think it’s since 1958 (serial number 16xxxxxx)

But i wonder the logo on Crown different years model or it’s original

I found on web some 1958s had different logo on crown (photo on web below)

And mine here,

And anything else was legit in 1958 ?
I hope that you guys could teach me up
Thank you all,

Hi Leon, welcome on OF.
There are several logo variation, but from my knowledge, yours, the roundest, is a later version.
It is quite common, as crown are often changed during servicing.

I may be wrong, if so, hope someone will correct it.

The crown is the correct style however I do believe it to be a later replacement given the originals would have had flat feet on the Omega logo in 1958. Not a big deal though..

What I find interesting is the logo on the lug.



Anybody have a comment on that?

As mentioned there are many different logos for these clover crowns. I've got a fair few and attach a photo. There may also be a naiad one but I only have these in gold and rose gold so can't confirm if they came in steel.
