Fantasy re-dial, and probably devoid of any Omega parts.

As Ash noted, this is completely fake, it's not just a redial of some sort.

Hello! This is an "original reproduction of an Omega watch, true from factory".

Still, @Pookietime, you’ve found us and welcome to the forum. If you’re interested in watches you’ll learn a lot here.

Two positives:
First, you found us and checked before you wasted your money, and
Second, we have many UK members.

So, next time you see something, ask before you buy

The lesson from this is to treat everything that auction house sells with suspicion since they are obviously a shyster outfit.
