Good afternoon members of the OF, somebody knows what can mean the word " SURETE" on the dial of this vintage Omega T17. At 12 hours, the word is inverted. Thank you in advance
Could be a retailer's name. Really don't know for sure. What I do know is that I like that watch. gatorcpa
La sûreté was also the french police. Maybe a government issued watch, similar to those military watches?.
The name "Surete" has been found on watch dials. Mostly Movado movements, though. https://www.invaluable.com/auction-...-18k-pink-gold-pocket-watch-3386-c-f534a4bb85 Could be a connection to the French National Police. I really don't know. gatorcpa
