    This is one of my dads watch collection I have inherited. Unfortunately I cannot get the back off at present to check movement and also cannot seem to find this specific case design on the web. So questions for the experts

    Can anybody tell me the likely model or year of manufacture (I am guessing mid 1970s)?
    Is the case back original or replacement?
    Case design seems to indicate it would of been originally on a metal bracelet not leather strap?

    Caseback is original to the watch, which is gold plated. If you can make out my avatar, you will see an early 1970s Omega hummer using a case of the same design. A leather strap works fine on these.

    Thanks
    Had a feeling this was not going to make me rich but as a certain supermarket says every little helps !!!!
    I do have a mint 1966 pie pan that is also on the list to go, I am hoping this might help bridge some of the gap, Any takers?
