    Hi,

    I'm looking for some help to identify a watch which I've recently come across in some old possessions which we had earmarked for car-boot.

    I think this watch was owned by my nan and hence I am interested to find out some more.

    I've attached a few pictures, albeit a little blurred.

    If anybody could help I would be much obliged.

    Thanks.

    "751.5816" is the Omega case reference number. "OWC" means Omega Watch Company. "375", means 0.375 fine solid gold or 9K. The other markings are UK hallmarks that will tell where the watch case was made or imported and the approximate date of production. I cannot read those.

    It is likely that this watch was produced only for the UK market.

    I take it that you are in the UK. Any competent jeweler should be able to help you with the rest of the identification.
