    Hello everyone!
    I’m new in the forum, I recently got an omega watch. I don’t know anything about it, I got it on an auction. I was wondering if you guys can help me find which model is this watch. I took it into a dealer in my city São Paulo, Brazil. And they charged me 5 times the price I paid for it to restore. I searched on the internet a little bit on parts that I could buy, but as I don’t know the exact model, I don’t know if it would fit.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hello Giovanni and welcome to the OF.
    The first thing to do when you buy an Omega is to check the ref. inside the caseback. Yours looks like an early 50's (shape of the lugs). Circa 1951?
    Probably a 30t2 inside.
    the question is. What do you want to restore? What is the problem?

    cheers

    Probably the dial and the hands ? Looks like a bumper 30.10 RA model to me...

    Thanks Kwijibo!
    The watch is in the dealer right now, as soon as he send me back I’ll see inside the caseback.
    And yes, I was looking to change the hands because they’re not in the same color, I guess they’re not gen. The numbers in the dial are not looking good too. Probably the crystal that has some risks and the bracelet. Where is the best place to find those parts?

    It doesn’t have the “Automatic” on the dial, but I don’t know if it was changed

    Please open the back and tell us the number of the case. Ita can be manual or are you sure it'd an automatic movement?

    Does it bump when you move you hand? Then it would be an automatic watch.

    My first thought was a 30T2 jumbo.

    The dial looks like a redial to me.

    The movement does not appear to be serviced. I see gunk and grime on the case and movement.
