    Hi there,

    - original dial or very good redial? whatyousay?
    - claims to have orig. crown - looks like screw-in, right?
    - is it a toploader?
    - early 60ies or older (coathanger)

    anything else you you see worth mentioning?

    cheers and - again - a heartfelt THX :thumbsup:
    Al

    -Dial seems original, however, these are usually signed T (tritium) next to SWISS MADE.
    -Crown is likely original based on its profile, but would help to see the Omega sign on it. Not a screw-in.
    -Yes
    -Early-to-late-60s. Cal. likely 550, or maybe 552.

    yep, omega signed crown ...

    :thumbsup:


    my qualms are that the guy who sells them is a bit shady, but the fact that its a toploader should help (as anti-franken-deterrent-mechanism ::facepalm1::).

    cheers & thx,
    Al

    btw .... since I need to pony up moneys for a speedy (before they get out of range for me - which is next tuesday ;-) ) so I would flip that watch ...

    what is a realistic price for that piece (to see if its worthwhile)

    cheers & thx, again ...

    There are several similar watches for sale on the internet. They should provide a clue to the value.
