Hey friends, curious to know if Omega ever used this font on their watches. Doesn’t look that familiar however the dial seems to have natural age so I wasn’t confident enough to write it off as a redial right away. Just trying to learn.

The logo does not look correct to me. Also, I am wondering how you got the reference 2576, because that should be a bumper automatic (and the dial doesn't say automatic) with running seconds sub-dial (and this watch has a sweep hand).

Then something is wrong there as well. What is the movement?

Wrong movement for the case-back, although it could be the similar ref 2577. A dial for an automatic movement will generally say AUTOMATIC. The dial also doesn't seem to fit properly in the case. It's a bit of a mess.

So this little thing is just all mixed up. Redial? Wrong Movement? Wrong Caseback?

IMO, it's a redial with pieces put together from different watches. That's enough for me to stop looking at it.

I feel sorry for that poor, confused, upside down number 4 on the dial 🤦
