Request for help identifying vintage Omega

Hello all,

Firstly, thank you for allowing me to join the forum - it looks to be a fantastic community of knowledge and I look forward to enjoying all it has to offer.

My brother and I inherited three vintage Omegas from our grandfather a number of years ago: I have a beautiful Dennison cased 13337; my brother has a 1980 1660216 Seamaster Automatic and another mystery Omega. My brother handed the two watches to me last weekend as I have recently gotten into some minor watch tinkering (mainly cleaning) to get them into wearable condition.

The unidentified watch is shown in the images below. It is a manual wind with date and a front loading case. To my untrained eyes it resembles a Seamaster Deville, but the lack of markings on the face seems strange. Having removed the crystal (which looks to be an incorrect replacement) I cannot see a way of removing the movement and therefore cannot check for a model/serial number. My research has suggested there should be locking ring and a split stem, however from what I can see if the stem it appears to be threaded.

Any information anyone could shed on the watch or advice on how to remove the stem and movement would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Tim

Many Omegas are without model names, this one looks good 😀

It looks like the early 70's Genèves powered by the cal. 1030.

No, the back can't be removed. This is a 9 karat gold Omega Geneve from the 70's with a 1000 series movement (likely 1030 or 1061). They open from the front.

Oh man I would be real careful monkeying around taking the crystal and bezel off as one false move and the dial and hands are damaged. It's such a nice watch I would say leave it to a pro to take it apart and certainly get it serviced if you plan on keeping it. If not then gently put the crystal and bezel back on and sell it the way she sits. 👍

Thank you all for your responses. Working from what you have told me, I think I have identified it as a 132.5017 dating from around the mid 70s. Unfortunately, it seems that a genuine crystal (062PN0303) may be difficult to source.

I completely agree with your advice to have it professionally serviced (I generally only open the watches to have a look/minor clean and do not try having a crack at things I don't understand). I am in Hampshire, UK - any recommendations for servicing nearby (or anywhere in southern England) would be gratefully received.
