Hi Everyone,
I want to ask about vintage watch I plan to buy. The dial is not identical to what is on Omega website under this reference number. In detail, the SWISS MADE on the watch is above the minutes lines, when in the reference it is under. Also I'm not sure about omega logo on the watch. Is there the chance that it is not original? Here is a link to Omega webpage - https://www.omegawatches.com/it-it/watch-omega-geneve-omega-md-166-0070. The reference number and calibre match, so maybe it is normal. However, better safe than sorry 馃槈 Thank you for all the help

Dial printing & logo look OK to me. Lume plots look inconsistent & crude, 10 o'clock baton index looks like it may have been glued back on. Pictures are not great, but looks like the dial is marred in at least a couple of places. Crystal is cracked, movement appears to be missing at least one case clamp.

Overall, pretty poor condition. Only worth purchasing if the price reflects the condition.

The dial is original but it should be cheap as the crystal is cracked and the dial has some blemishes.

Agree, it depends on the price. It's a beautiful watch. But not in the best of condition.
But it may be a fun project to restore if that's something that you're into. Good luck
