Vintage Omega

Hello,
the Watch isn't fake but the dial is repainted, and therefore of very little value and I hope you didn't payed much. Did you bought it from India or South Korea?

Hello @Ikrimust and welcome to the forum! The case style and funky purple dial color suggest your watch dates to the 1970s. At that time, the Swiss watch manufacturers (such as Omega) were struggling with the new-fangled quartz watches from Japan so your watch, in some ways, represents that last of the old guard. Omegas from that time period had colored dials (such as red, green or blue) in an attempt to regain some mass-market appeal.

If you want to wear your watch, we recommend that you have the mechanical movement serviced by an independent watchmaker who is familiar with vintage watches. All of the moving bits in the movement need to be checked for wear and tear, lubricated and adjusted. The watchmaker can open up the case and tell you the reference number (on the inside caseback) and verify the movement type.

Looks like the pics below are of your watch, all genuine and original from 1974-75: https://www.omegawatches.com/watch-omega-geneve-omega-st-166-0190.

Dial is not refinished, but there's no mention of it having been serviced, so it'll have to be serviced before regular use. Maybe some members can recommend a good reputation watchmaker near you to have it done there. It'll cost some money, so hopefully it didn't cost much too begin with.

Does Geneve part of Seamaster previously?

Good question. They are separate lines mostly with many exceptions where they used both Geneve and Seamaster on the same case number.

I think I have spoken too quick regarding your watch as your case shape is slightly different to the one on Omega site and on the web. The case back may have come from a different watch and the rest of your watch may belong to a different reference number, not 166.0190. Or just the case that doesn't belong. At this point, the only way to be certain is to obtain an Extract of Archive from Omega using the serial number. It'll tell which watch model the movement belongs to originally. It'll cost about $150 though, and is probably not worth it considering the low value of your watch.

C case Constellations in good condition are plentiful, this one is not in good condition, the dial is damaged and the movement has significant wear from a worn bushing or rotor axle.

It's not just the medallion which is very worn, severe wear is also evident on the gold cap on the corners and edge.

Again, these can be found in good condition without having to compromise.
