Hello guys,
I want to start to say that I do not know much about this but I inherited a lot from my grandfather 20 years ago and now I started to clean everything out and found this watch.
I have tried to look for the same one but can't find any looking like this.
I know he had this watch a very long time so it should be very old.
I haven't found any documents or certificates unfortunately
What I can read from it is:
Omega Seamaster Antimagnetic 18k 0 750
And on the inside it says 17 jewels
I tried to take good quality pictures to show it.
It is not in the best shape.
What could you guys tell me about this?

Well...the movement isn't made by Omega, nor is the case, dial, or hands.

The plating on the case, which is supposed to be solid 18k gold, is flaking off in spots.

This is a common fake model that shows up on here every few weeks, posted by someone in the same situation you are in.

Cheers, Al

A lot of tells. The caseback, the dial the movement and the case are known fake. You had these a lot. We see these often on OF.

The main tell are the large hallmarks on the outside of the caseback. With Omega watches these hallmarks. are on the inside of the case back 99% of the time.
