    dear omega fans,

    I am looking into buying an omega “trench” watch. I would like your opinion if it is the real deal?

    The caliber looks correct. The serial number puts it in the correct year range. I checked rannft.de http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&&2uswk&Omega_12_sav. And it looks like a 12” Hunter

    Very interested in your opinions. Real or not?

    Case and movement seem consistent to around 1915 based on this chart from Omega:

    Dial is of a style used by Omega. I'd like to see an Omega garter-style hallmark on the inside cover of the case (not shown). From the pictures here, looks like a decent watch to me.

    All depends on the price.

    Movement certainly looks legit, serial would make it right era for an early trench.

    Crown maybe a replacement. Hands and dial of a style seen on these before.

    Looks all good to me except the minutes hand which could be a replacement. Usually a 12 or 13 lignes caliber inside. What is the case diameter?
