·Hi all,
I was almost ready to give up my hunt for my first Omega vintage when I came across this piece and as usual, I was wondering if I could get second opinions from forumers:
The seller mentioned that this comes with some documents and the number on the envelope matches the serial number on the movement.
My questions:
1. To my untrained eyes, this look authentic and original - is there anything that should be of concern? Any tell tale red flags?
2. I don't have anything against redials/refinished dials but preference is to have an original dial - dial is slightly worn but I'm fine with that if the dial has not been touched up.
3. Does the movement match the time period and model of the watch?
4. My only slight concern is the inner case back - this doesn't look like other Omega case back I've seen - cause for concern?
5. Is there anything about the watch that could point to a franken watch or do all the parts match up to the watch itself (i.e. watch is whole with all its original parts)?
6. Does anyone know the exact model/ref for this watch?
As always, thank you for any help you can give me 😀
