First up, I know the hands are wrong and it should have a gold crown (at least it is the right shape and size). On the case sourcing some atm, pretty sure should be lumed, not black infill.

I am 99.9% sure the dial is right, the only major flaw being a teeny dimple where some eejit has put a too long movement retaining screw in.
Ref 14393 62 in the caseback, with a 17.2 mil serial number on the movement, which is quite tired (has had a new rotor for sure), not so sure on it being original to the watch. However, case is nicely unabused and beyond the dimple, dial is lovely. Also nice that it came with the bracelet. Didn't cost a fortune but also not a bargain, as it sits now is following a dip in the ultrasonic and a new crystal. I will give it a full service when I have a spare slot.

Any opinions most welcome.

Nice sharp case and beautiful gold BOR bracelet.
Dial is certainly original but the hands are not. I think they should be faceted dauphine without lume. These can be obtained, mayne not from Omega, but in a shape very close to the originals.

The hands, lume or no lume, are not original to this watch. They are wrong style and wrong length (too long).

Oh completely, I knew they were wrong when I bought it. On the hunt for some kosha ones already.
