Hmmmnnn...

So I bought this omega watch online but I cant afford more much more to check its authenticity.

I went to jewelly shops and if i mention sell, they seem interested but as soon as I mention about valuation they dont seem interested.

Ive been trying to read a lot how to check its authenticity online but still no idea.

Wondering if I should just sell it to get my money back. Not just sure how much since i have no paperworks that can go with it.

I'm just interested in 1960s Omegas.... the one you posted looks like a fake to me...

Hope I will be proven wrong by more knowledgeable members here

Good luck!

Just thought of adding more photo as I was unable to take a clear one earlier. And yes, would appreciate comments regarding this watch. 😅 If its not genuine then its a lesson for me to learn not to impulse buy lol

Check carefully the engravings and the position! of these (compare, compare and compare on www) . You can do some own research and train your eyes.
The specialistst on OF need sharp pictures. Put the watch on a grey paper and take better pictures - and then wait for the Pro´s!

You bought a watch for less than $1K, a watch thats sells in the many thousands of dollars on reputable sites.
What caliber (movement) do you suppose is fitted to your watch?

Could you take a shot of the movement showing the balance wheel?

That is not a co-axial movement or even an Omega movement - the real cal. 750 movement from Omega was used in the 60s and 70s and looks nothing like this. It’s a fake.

ouch... looks like a low-effort fake. That movement is not a Omega movement, and I suspect the "750" text is borrowed from the marking for 18k gold, which is used wrongly in this case.
