Dear experts, yesterday I went in a shop to buy a couple of straps and I saw this Omega Genève. It is similar to the one I bought for my wife (I made a post about it here) and it could be the "dressy" version of the watch she likes. Do you think is it genuine, redialed, fake... and do it worth € 700 they are asking? Thank you very much for your kind help!
I am skeptical of the dial. That is a variation of the earlier geneva that I have not seen previously, and the script (especially the "G") is not correct. The case is also over-polished. In my view the watch is worth nowhere near that price. Regards, Tony C.
Right. So, in summary, wrong case, unknown movement, redialled and wrong hands. Maybe a complete fake.
Redial. Lacquer is gone. Letters in "OMEGA" appear to be different sizes. "Geneve" font is wrong. Crosshairs are too thick. Hands are wrong.
I was lucky a couple of times with a vintage Omega and a vintage Zenith, but I will never buy a watch again without asking an advice from you! HUGE, HUGE, HUGE thanks! It's really kind from you expert to help a newbie, really appreciated your advices!
