Omega Speedmaster Co Axial 9300 - No serial Number on Lug?

Nobody says that at all, they do an excellent job its just that on vintage pieces their mandate is to restore it to as new condition which can mean replacing some old parts that are worn looking but original with brand new recently made replacements. None of that applies to a Cal 9300 / 8500 or other modern watch, I've certainly never heard of anyone ever claiming them to be "rough on watches".

Interesting, what did you do with it? Did you manage to sell it on or do you still have it?

This has been - and continues as such - an intriguing thread, straying off in various directions. Getting back to basics, like others have said, this doesn't look like a fake and if a 'pre-production' item that just adds to its collectability in my view. In the long run the lack of papers won't matter, but there will be considerable historical interest because it is not a run-of-the-mill watch.

All I see are people saying avoid Omega if at all possible since they seem to be rough with watches that come in for service.

That was what I was thinking when I bought it.

Still waiting for the Omega answer.
