    Hi,

    I am new to this forum and therefore I thank you for welcoming me.

    I own a vintage omega for which I need help to identify the model. The reason for that is that it is mounted on a generic aftermarket strap, and I would like to replace it for one as close as possible to the original.

    References are :
    Cal. 283
    Case 2792-4sc
    S/N 14301290

    Here are pictures of the dial, movement, and case back :

    By searching the omega vintage db with those references, I get to this model :
    Reference OT 2792
    International collection : 1954
    MovementType : Manual winding (mechanical)
    Caliber number : 283

    Searching the net, the closest looking I could find was this one.

    Thanks for your help !

    Hi cebo0o. The reason you're having trouble finding another identical watch is that your dial has been repainted and no longer has the original Omega finish or fonts. However, a strap with an 18 mm width at the lugs should fit.

    Also, you already know the Model. It is a 2792-4 Seamaster. It has no other name.

    Hi ulackfocus, hi cicindela,

    Thanks for answering me. So my dial was repainted... Well, I didn't know. It is an old watch and I don't have the whole history. As I couldn't find a matching one, I thought there may be several dial versions for this model.

    Anyway, the hands, indexes, hour markers match the one returned by omega vintage database.

    The original seems to be a simple flat leather strap. I'll look for that.
