Can ref.no 14395 61 SC and cal.561 with production no. 19967532 be a combination?
To me it seems to be two different years, 1961 and 1962. Is it possible? The watch is Gold on Steel and the Conni on backside in gold.
I will very much be greatfull for any information .
Regards
Bo

Hey Bo,

the 61 in the ref doesn't refer to the year it was made in, don't worry.

I didn't know 14395s came with 561s, too - have only ever seen 504s in them. Would you like to share some pictures? It's a hell of a rare ref. Including it in the title of this thread might also help attracting some views and possibly replies. 😀

Welcome @Bossec350
The reference is 14393 and movt serial can’t be attributed to an exact year.

Cal. 561 is correct for this watch. The date on the case back should not necessarily correspond with the date of the movement. Neither are entirely accurate, and Omega had a tendency to use compatible parts until their inventory ran out.

Just like most factories did at that time.

Yup, forget what I said regarding a 14395 - 14393 is a different story. Still a nice ref and, as stated above, with the right caliber.
