    Hi

    Recently i bought this watch and i know i made a mistake not asking for more pictures etc but now could you help me to tell if at least only the case it's from other watch and the dial it's good? I purchase at least an omega movement with a nice black dial? Does it worth it to try to find a case for it and if it does could someone help me to tell me which is the reference of the case which match with this movement?

    Thank you in advance for all the help from this forum ..

    Here are the pictures..

    The watch has a 1950 serial number but I can’t help you on the rest.
    The crown looks to me to be a replacement but that wouldn’t surprise anyone on a 70 year old watch.

    It's a bad redial, the details and especially the subsecond gives it away easily.

    Don’t think that is an Omega case.

    Movement is original Omega but looks in bad shape. Dial might be the original one but it is badly repainted and surely bears no resemblance to how it originally looked. Case and crown are obviously not Omega.

    Thank you for all the replies..my main interest was if the dial was ok and worth to try to find out a case for it. But if you said that it's a bad redial i don't think it will worth to try to find out a match case..
    So i will send it on the list of bad experience and i will try in the future to be more carefully when i purchase something.
