·The Flightmaster name was registret in july 1957 according to this
https://www.watchbooksonly.com/omeg...6ZvJTrpEopOGhXQro3BDk35XsGTMr2Yz241F4TaOiMd-A
So it could be a very early one with the serial 15.8xx.xxx 1957-58?

I know the OP and the story is correct. I have adviced him for help here and he is in contact with @kox
It is the same watch as in the other tread, he tried to delete the other thread when people was filling his inbox, therefore he writes
"I really apologize for any inconvenience at the last thread I posted about this watch."

Catch of the month, very nice find! Enjoy that fabulous watch and go for an extract. You can order it on the webpage of Omega.

·Yes this is the same watch as the other thread.
I received too many private messages with people who wanted to buy the watch as my username was my real name. So people were able to find me on social media etc. I apologize for making another thread

·honestly, you should do a search on this. It has been written about dozens and dozens of times. To oversimplify: Omega is not sympathetic to vintage watches, and often replaces items that make the watch valuable with new replacement parts.

·The Omega Sales Katalogue for the FAP shows the Flightmaster in the 1959 version. As far as I know, the early ones and the last version from 1964 were shipped to the FAP with this Back and were engraved in Peru. Seamonster and omega sign only. But have never seen one in the flesh like the OP example. And,yes, omega Excerpt a must ! Kind regards. Achim
Just out of curiosity when I fill the page for an extract from the archives in the case number line do I just put the 2914-2 which is the reference or how am I supposed to do it?

··This Space for RentWill do - I thought you can be very specific though with what you would like Omega to do in terms of repair or cleaning up the watch. Or do they do whatever they feel like to get the watch running again?
There are quite a few vintage watches documented here on OF that suffered at the hands of Omega factory service.
