Rose gold case and yellow gold hands......no picture of the inside case back either, I really wonder if that case is actually an Omega one?

It is, is a French one, as it should, as the dial is marked Fab. Suisse. and the case bears the French markings (there is a photograph of the inside case back).

The movement, also, is 73 numbers away from a watch sold here by our own Kyle, two years ago:

Hee, hee! Good point...I think I must be losing it 😬

In fact, it is a strange watch, so the logical first reaction is "that is not a kosher omega". Actually, whenever I see one (and it is not that often) I end up doing a "reductio ad Kyle": it looks like Kyle's, so it must be authentic.

But it should be cheaper, IMHO.

Interesting that it didn't sell.
I was piqued so I messaged him asking if they sold elsewhere. He said he's withdrawn it pending an extract from omega so I suspect it may be relisted at a later date with an extract attached?

That might have been my fault - I asked if he had an Extract, he said no, I said the Extract would show if it was a NAAFI delivered watch and advised he get one...

Why would the extract add any value over the receipt?

Looks like a -64 model without bevels.

I didn't see the receipt in the original advert. It may have been a general description and not have identified the particular watch for sale, but with that receipt and an extract showing it was delivered to the NAAFI it would certainly make it more desirable.
