Dear all - as a vintage Omega lover, still new to the forum, wanted to ask for your help.
Thinking to buy another vintage model, still not sure about Ref# and details I received. More than grateful for some support!
Best!

Year: 1959

I'm not sure what you are asking specifically, but the reference number of the watch shown in your post is inside the case-back, 2846. I wouldn't recommend buying that particular example.

Take a look at the Learn How to Fish sticky thread and start studying the watches that interest you. Eventually it will be easy for you to distinguish watches that are in good and original condition.

If you want to buy a watch right away, look at the private sales section or the recommended eBay thread.
