Hi, brand new to the forum. I would appreciate any advice on this watch which was given to a relative in 1951. Is it genuine Omega? Anything you can tell me about this model is appreciated. I haven't had the back off it, so no further details available at the moment, thanks Tony

Not a great deal to go on. Logo obscured..... movement pics and inside of caseback would be good. it appears to be in original and untouched condition. Watch band is aftermarket and should be removed before it chews the lugs any more.

I’m curious why the logo is obscured. I would imagine that these three images were taken at the same time but between image two and three it appears as if 4+ hours have elapsed. Was the logo hidden intentionally?

Good observation! It is common though for watch collectors to nap aggressively during photo shoots.

Movement picture and inside caseback would be a help. Looks ok to me.

Nothing looks too off from the cover of the book 😀
