    Hello everybody,
    I’ve found this Omega Geneve yellow gold in fairly good condition. I had a quick look at the movement and it looked fine to me but..
    I’ve never seen such thick markers on the dial and also the hands look thicker than normal to me.
    Sorry, for the bad photo
    Any help would be very appreciated
    Thanks!

    I'm very new at this so don't take this seriously.
    I appears there is Onyx missing in the four and eight markers. The markers, hour and minute hands seem OK but not the seconds hand. I'll go out on a limb and say the crown is wrong it could just be the lighting. Is there corrosion on the dial near to the crown?

    No onyx on these, just black paint.

    Condition of the dial alone should make this one a pass, just plain unattractive and the deterioration and spotting is likely to only get worse.

    I had the same feeling on the tip of second hand. Do you think it’s a franken? The crown is just plain without the omega brand engraved.
    Thanks for your hints!
