Hey all,

I'm looking into buying a vintage WWII-era Omega. I stumbled upon this posting, and I'm having trouble with identifying the authenticity of the dial. Could you guys take a look?

 

Hi!
I think the watch is ref 2639.
IMHO the dial and hands is correct.
I do have a similar watch.

 

It looks good to me! Don't really know about that seconds hand though

 

It also looks good to me. The Radium has aged to a nice patina and the hands and numbers match well. If you have a Geiger counter, I would be curious to see how many Sieverts it throws off from the front AND back. Just in case you’re tempted, don’t open it. Have a qualified watchmaker go it. Radium is nasty stuff.

 

Thanks all! I'm not sure about the reference number... Caseback serial provided doesn't match the reference number. Were ref. 2639s built in 1939? Might be a frankenwatch?

Also, how much would something like this be appraised for? The seller had it maintained this past June.
