·Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time registering.
Firstly, I own this piece.
Secondly, not looking for a valuation. Could care less about the value of this piece.
Thirdly, not looking for authentication of verification of the piece.
I've done my best to try and ID the watch. I am trying to restore it to its former beauty and it came with a burnished and generic crown. I have had two different watchmakers look at it, order a crown, to only be disappointed and receive yellow gold, and the wrong shape/size for the era to boot.
I'm aware of what Omega did in (was it 2015?). I have a line on a supplier of vintage pieces. I just need help ID'ing the case. They couldn't do that for me.
Movement: 30T2 (some variant of, don't have the best photo)
Movement Serial: 9767491
Caseback Serial: 10613181
Model/Reference: Missing
I understand prior to the late 1940's, especially in precious metal models this is not uncommon. Unfortunately the watchmaker gave me some wonky tap/tube numbers so even ordering based on that info has thrown me off. 3
I really appreciate the help as I've looked for 10's of hours. Comparing other watches, ones for sale, write-ups, image searches and all with no luck. This will save me ~$160 CAD instead of having to go to the Omega Archives if someone can help me out. I'd be ever-so-grateful.
