·Hi guys,
Nice to meet you everyone, I'm just starting to look into watches and very new to it so I'm hoping maybe you guys are able to teach me 😀 ... I came across a lot of omega watches which does not have neither signed crown nor back case, especially gold filled. I have read that there is a customised case for the US market? e.g. 'ROSS' that made cases for omega. If that's the case, I'm just wondering how can you tell whether it's original or a franken watch. Does the stamped inside the back case also indicate the movement it belongs to? (I'm just not quite sure how the Ref. number works for these customised cases) Does the watch become less dersirable for collectors due to this? Thank you so much in advance for any information 😁
