    Does not appear to be an original dial, and possibly a fake military watch.

    Others with more experience with military watches will chime in, but in future you should ask before buying.

    I don't think there a single genuine Omega part in the watch. Everything is fake.
    Just one example out of many is the number inside the case back which comes from a constellation.

    As moderator I must report, I thoroughly examined it. And it's not only merely fake, it's really most sincerely fake. :thumbsdown:

    Philosophically speaking, the item is real. But it did not come from the Omega factory...unless a technician threw it out of the window...

    Good news, you're one of the lucky ones who sought advice and acted on it.

    But next time..................BEFORE you buy.

    Just slightly on topic.

    Some people are reluctant to show a watch on eBay or other source in case others might grab it.

    I doubt that any of the watches we tend to look for slip through the watchful eyes and watch lists of the members here, if it's on the market we will find it.
