    Hey OF
    i was surfing some local ads and found a watch lot for sale with a bunch of watches in it. None are really of any interested except i spotted this in the corner. The owner doesnt know much about the watch and theres no markings.
    Does someone know what reference it may be ?
    no pic of the movement of course
    but it could be cheap enough to grab with the lot.
    The front of the case looks a bit rough yet the back of the case, from what i can see in the crappy photos i was able to screen shot, looks half good.

    are the second hand correct and crown correct ? i know you cant see the logo side of the crown. \
    Thanks All

    The case appears to me to be a replacement. The index markers appear to be touching (or nearly touching) the bezel opening. I suspect the case is not original Omega, either. Awful photos, blurred detail, not enough shown in two photos to really be certain. If this is the best of a bad lot, then you are probably looking at a dog from every town. Suggest you avoid.

    Better pics would only hurt this one anyway.

    I think it could be an US market gold filled case.

    Pretty sure that the dial has been redone, but hard to tell from that photo. Seconds hand is wrong, obviously.
