Just browsing the web, and came across a picture of this Omega.

No information at all - all I would say is that it's 1930/40s Omega sector dial. Does anyone know what reference it may be I just love it and would love to pick one up similar for my collection!

Not sure of the reference, but probably running a cal 26.5

These are very sought after dials and when housed in large 36mm and up cases can be very expensive indeed.

For example this one at over $30K 😲

Found some info about that in Tim Mackrain' s database. Indeed, caliber 26.5, as suggested above.

And this one looks like it could be the smaller 23.5. Much more affordable and great value.....if you like a 30mm case diameter 😉

No offense intended to the OP, it always surprises me how people talk about « picking up » expensive watches as if they were mushrooms.

Nice watch by the way. I wish they grew like mushrooms.

There's a similar ish one here, fraction of that price (but still a pretty penny!): https://www.carsandwatches.com/watches/omega-calatrava-oversize-with-sector-dial

This is a more realistic price IMHO

Caliber 26.5 is a historic movement itself - and the dial extremely attractive. The size, however, makes it a bit difficult to wear.
