Thanks for your reply! This weekend, I'll find time to do a little jewelry cleaning (I have more than just this watch) and pix taking, then I'll download all, and come back here to give you a look. Again, thanks! Julie
: Nice watch to inherit!
: But cannot tell anything reliable based on that
: description. All watches sound about the
: same unless described by an expert or have
: an *extremely* obvious feature unique to a
: single model. Those criss-crossing lines on
: the dial are the only thing in your
: description that aren't on hundreds of
: different Omega watches made in the past 150
: years.
: It is about like trying to identify a car that
: was described only as an "old red Ford
: with the Ford name in chrome letters, vinyl
: seats and round black tires." I'm not
: making fun of you -- merely using a example
: to show how identifying something like that
: really requires more detail than a novice
: would notice or think to mention. It takes
: someone experienced in seeing many of these
: watches to know what more subtle differences
: identify a time period, model line or
: specific style.
: So a photo will make a substantial difference!
