1955 Omega Watch

I have inherited an Omega wristwatch that belonged to my Grandfather. I know the best way to find out more about it is to have the serial number in hand and have it researched by Omega. I don't have the number handy and just found this forum, maybe you can help. The watch was purchased in Spain in 1955. It is 18k gold and is a manual wind watch, there is no date feature. The distinctive feature is the face of the dial, it is of a herringbone design. On the dial all it says is Omega and has the "Omega" sysmbol on it. I have not seen this dial on any omega watch online anywhere and hope that someone may have some information about it.
