·Hi all,
I was looking at this was for my next acquisition and I quite liked it - nice and clean dial with roman numerals and sub-second, but there are some uncertainties around it.
First one is that the ref number quoted is 2638-4. The problem is that there is not enough info on these models from the 1940s and it is difficult to make a proper research. The model that I managed to find with this ref number doesn't have the roman numerals, but the arabic.
A similar model on the last photo (although with repainted dial, seems to have the same dial layout) has a different ref number (2374/5).
Another red flag is the seconds markers and the railroad at 6 o'clock - there is a mismatch. I know this indicates a redial, but the omega logo and signature on the dial look pretty legit to me.
Does anyone hold / have seen this model and could advice on the authenticity?
Many thanks!
