OF Family-

Can you please tell me if this Ranchero dial is original. I have purchased from the seller in the past and trust him but want to make sure the dial is correct and not a later redial as the Ranchero seems to have many redials throughout the years.

Movement is in the 1703…. range with a 268 caliber.

The radium around the dial has seen better days but the face seems to be nice.

Looks legit. Lume has seen better days and the dial does have significant patina. Comes down to price.

Dial looks original. The hands may have been cleaned and relumed as they look cleaner than the dial, but they may just have aged ‘better’

I’d consider that a bargain.

Dial, hands and case looks correct. But I am not sure I have seen an original white dial Ranchero with caliber 268, confirmed with an extract from Omega. I have seen Transformed Ranchero with Seamaster dials and Extract from the archive with cal. 268.

If I may I will use this thread. Found this from local dealer. For me it looks like the dial and the hands are correct. Hands are not in good condition tho.

You will get better response if you make new thread with new watch. Inside photos available?
