Hi, I'm new to the forum . I see this Omega signed Meister in a shop. It seems to me a Ranchero, but I'm not sure.
Anyone cold help me with some details about this model?

Thanks!

Hi
The case is more likely a 2639 than a 2990.
Hard to say more about the dial from this far but I’d definitely want to take a closer look…
What is the asking price?

Well ranchero dials are worth a fair amount. But I never saw a meister ranchero and the lume and print is looking a bit suspect to me.

Hi, dial appears relumed and I am always scared about any other writing than Ranchero (there is always some additional "Seamaster", "Meister" is new but rather refers to Junghans than to Omega). Hands are not original: hour hand to short and lume on minute hand is too broad. Case also no 2990. Same with crown. So really bad marriage. Dont go for it!

Junghans? Meister marked dials refer to the selling jeweller and it is seen to many brands. Sometimes rediallers at it to add interest…

Quite a variety of Omega references sold by Meister:
