Hello, everybody!
I just bought this watch from chrono24 and I trully hope is genuine. The seller says so, but in women category is very little info to check online about the vintage wacthes. I found that the code 484 is correct, but for the rest i couldn't find much info.
What are you thinking? Is it genuine or not?

Thank you in advance!

Some of the photos are pretty blurry, but at first glance I have no reason to doubt the watch at all. Appears to be a legit ladies cocktail watch in 14k gold from the late 60s.

484 is known as the movement caliber. LW inside the case-back would be the case-maker's mark, but I don't know who that refers to. The other numbers inside the case-back are probably specific to that maker. There appears to be some code on the movement below the jewels on the same plate as OMEGA WATCH Co, but I can't read it.

Hello again! I received the watch and I took it to a watchman and he also confirmed that the watch is original, 100% 14k gold(I checked it at a jewelry shop also). I said I will come back with more pictures, I am very happy with the purchase. It works very well.

Looks like an all original Omega ladies watch with a U.S. made 14K case and bracelet.

Hopefully it fits you as is. These types of bracelets were generally custom fit to prior owners by jewelers. If it’s too large, it can be cut down. If too small, you’ll have an issue.

It is just a bit large, but I will take to jewelry shop to adjust it. Thanks for the reply.

Hi loanaB;

My wife loves the vintage small, solid gold Omega and Longines watches so she would enthusiastically approve of your acquisition.

I like that clasp, the Omega symbol is a nice added touch.

Nice watch indeed! Now the forum rule is that you must follow up with a wrist short once it's fitted and ready to wear! 😇 Enjoy your new watch!

Make sure you keep whatever they remove for future use if needed.
