Hello, I am new here, so first thank you for reading this!

As I found a vintage watch that I would be willing to buy, I wanted to ask, if someone could verify, that this watch is not a fake?

The information I got is:
Model number: 135.041
Brand: Omega
Model: Geneve
Movement: Manual Winding

Thanks for your help!

Watch looks OK. I have no opinion on bracelet.

 

Not sure whether the case is correct for a 135.041. Check on Google pictures for this case reference and you will see what it should look like

 

And the bracelet does not fit, seems to miss 1mm on each side ;-)

 

Finally, IMO, the dial does not fit the case. Outer diameter is far too much away from the casing. Seems as if the dial is too small for the case. you should try to reconfirm this. Could be a franken.Also surpriced to see the "SWISS MADE" on the inner side of the minute marks - although such dials exist; however, the position where it sits compared to the 5-min marks make me sceptical.

 

By the way, another good way in getting a feeling on the correctness besides this forum is to check for pics on google pictures. If you do not find very very similar pictures based on ref. number or movement ref. you should be cautious.

 

It has a cheap generic bracelet.
I suspect it is a redial.
It's definitely not a reference 135.041.

Too many questions. Keep looking for another watch (preferably not on Chrono24).

 

Thank you for your answer, so I guess I will look for another watch!

 

Thank you for your help! That are definitely too many questions!

 

Hands look incorrect- the minute hand should go out to the end of the dial marker or hash marks or at least closer to them. Dial looks OK but need more pics to tell if redone or not.

 

Here is a 135.041, see the problem?
