·Looks like US collection. Serial puts it very roughly into the late 40s/early 50s.

·According to Dr. Ranfft, after Omega revised the calibre numbers, this one became a calibre 300, introduced in the late 1940s. This is a guess, but likely discontinued by the late 1950s after styles of men’s watches changed. Case is gold filled with 80 microns plating. One micron is one millionth of a meter. So it was a quality plated case. If you need to know more, ask specific questions.
