Hello everyone, I have a question about the Omega 166.027 watch. I inherited this watch from my grandfather. I decided to have it serviced at Omega and they tell me that the glass is not original. However, my grandfather doesn't remember changing the glass. Is this curved glass with magnifying glass official?
I ask the question because I see that other Omega watches with the same reference are sold on the internet sometimes with the magnifying glass and sometimes without the magnifying glass.
Here are some examples :

Here are the photos of my watch:

Thank you for your help !

Lovely watch.
Is there an omega logo in the centre? You’ll need to look very closely, in good natural light, ideally with a magnifying glass to see it. If it’s not there it’s not a genuine glass.

For some references there was an optional genuine Omega crystal with the magnifier, not sure if this is one.

I wish all black dial Omegas with a date had a black background on the date wheel...

Beauty. Although I would put a different strap on it.

Do you know how your grandfather got the watch?

My grandfather bought it in the 70s in eastern France. Apparently, he never had the glass changed. It's true that it was originally a different bracelet, but he chose to put this one on to make it more practical. The watch will be back from service around April 2024, and I'm going to choose a black leather strap, I think.

It's a beauty. It's in my top 10 list of omega models. You can also use a black tropic strap or nato. Some inspiration
