    Hi, could someone tell me is there something strange in this Omega 1022 movement?

    It's ticking in a vintage Geneve I recently bought and I'm wondering shouldn't there be some ref. number also in the movement or not?

    Google pics search seems to find 1022 movements both with and without numbers on them...

    I attach also pics of case back and Omega bracelets numbers. What can one tell about them?

    Thanks in advance for your help! IMG_20170112_144746.jpg

    I see 1022 on the movement, not sure what you're asking. The reference number is 366.0833 (inside the case back). If you do an internet search of that reference, you'll answer your own question. Since you provided no front shot, I'm just guessing.

    I did see that 1022 but should there be some other number visible in that movement also? Some quite similar movements seems to have but others do not. The watch is Geneve day-date automatic.
    Those case back and bracelet photos I attached basically to ask if those numbers can tell if they are originally from same watch or just assembled together from different watches...

    Here's the front.

    Ok, that's good to hear. I didn't thought that little number inside that circle could be it but naturally it is.
    Still I'm wondering if there originally should be written Omega etc. like in this photo I found:

    Sorry, I see what you're talking about. Something's up with that. Appears to be a replacement but I'll let those more knowledgeable about parts answer.

    Omega end tissot have collaboration in 70's so lots of movement was marked with less...only my point of view.

    Since several movements share the same bridge, it's likely a replacement that was made to be non-specific. I would not worry about it personally.

    Cheers, Al

    Allright, that just might be the case here. That's a relief to hear!
    Watch isn't mint so it don't bother me much if it's only a non marked spare bridge that is been used at some point.
    Thank you all! I knew that you would know.
