Please Advise: Vintage Ladies Omega

Hi Guys,

Thanks in advance for any help, and apologies for any ignorance - very new here!

I'm considering the linked watch as a gift, but the lack of really any information on it has me hesitant.

It would be for my girlfriend who has little-to-no watch knowledge/experience, so she won't mind missing papers, or the non-original back, but I'm hoping to:
- Get your opinions on the authenticity
- Find the model name and year (or range), if possible

Thanks!

Thanks, sheepdoll! Off the top of your head, any similar models you think would be worth it within that price range?

Several pieces of advice when buying for a lady:

1/ is she aware you’re contemplating a watch purchase and does she like/wear watches?

2/ what’s her usual style when it comes to clothing and jewelery:
-frilly / dainty/ delicate items?
- sporty/ casual?
-business/ classic?
That may have an impact on the choice of watch.

3/ is she prepared to wear a watch which is fragile and requires attention? a vintage watch has little shock or water resistance, may be damaged if worn in rainy weather or if hand cream or perfume enter the watch through the winder area.
Contrary to a quartz watch it will require service every 5 to 8 years, which is getting more and more expensive in many Western countries.

Best advice: go to a big department store with many watches of different styles, try different sizes. Vintage women’s watches from the era you posted are smaller than the size of a nickel if you’re in the US, or about the same diameter as a 5 cent coin (US or Euro).
