Greetings and happy new year! I whant to bother you with some questions if it’s possible! I whant to buy an omega gold tulip but i am not shure if to pool the triger:
1 this model apear only with the movement from eta 955.411? Because this one have an eta 955.412 and i want to know if the movement is legit!
2 the watch is missing the back cover, is it hard to get a new one or one of you feel’s ok to sell it to me?
To the movement is missing also the brass plate with the movement serial number, and i am thinking the movement was changed!
I will atatch photos with the watch and looking forward for your answers

A new case back for a watch like this would be very difficult to find. You would probably need a sealing gasket as well, which may prove just as difficult to obtain.

I would wait for a better example. These are not highly collectible and prices should be reasonable.

Something about the movement looks wrong to me.

I would quit wasting time with this. Only suggestion is to find a donor Omega watch and swap out the movement. Since it is already missing case pieces, this is a money losing project to start.
