·Dear OF Members,
First of all, thank you being an invaluable place for resource of both knowledge and help.
I have come across an Omega dress watch, with the ref. 2903, which to my eye appears attractive. However, I have noticed some ambiguities, which I believe raises concern.
Firstly, the crown, albeit being an omega crown, does not appear to original to this particular reference. Crown of Seller's watch is to the right.
Secondly,
There is some discoloration on the dial on the right side of the watch (adjacent to the crown), which raises concern whether there has been intake of water? Finally, there seem to be missing a baton at the 6 o'clock marker - I do not know whether this is common for this particular reference. Crystal is also unmarked.
I have no pictures of the movement nor inner case-back. The movement, according to the seller, should be a cal. 268 not requiring an immediate service. Besides all of the above, I believe the case is in a decent condition and that the dial is untouched, which makes it desirable for me to purchase it as my first omega. However, before I pull the trigger, I would like to hear your opinion.
