I bought this from ebay seller in Ukraine..
it's not an original trench watch, but I do like it.
it's around 41.5mm width

dial is modern
case is omega
movement dates to circa 1912
nice strap
£350 paid for it

Overall. Not bad. Someone I knew paid $750US for an IWC one in 2004

As long as you knew it’s not genuine (meaning didn’t leave the factory like that) and like it. All that matters

They’re not collectible due to being a marriage watch with essentially a fake dial and either fake or heavily modified pocket watch cases, but it was relatively cheap so if you’re happy with it - congrats.

Thanks …yes I like it and for the money it looks the part , and it’s running great the time is very accurate for such an old movement , yes it’s never going to be extremely valuable , but it feels like a £500+ watch and I know genuine omegas that are original can sell for good money into the thousands for a gold one
