I have 2 Omega watches which I am looking for a bit more info on. There are 2 images available for anyone who can help. They can be accessed by this link (or the one below entitled 'watch pictures'): http://www.mhdrivertraining.co.uk/watch
Omega Seamaster
This is 9 carat (marked .375 on the rear of one of the lugs) with a gold back with deeply embossed Omega Seahorse. The movement is automatic and the watch is believed to date from the 1950s. As far as I know it was originally purchased for £65!
Omega Unknown!
This is a bit more tricky - I know the serial numbers of this watch, and using these I have dated it to approximately 1932-34. They are:
- Watch No. (on case back) 8788341
- Mech. No. (on mechanism) 7948257
Unfortunately I have not had any success searching for these on the Omega website, as they don't appear to have records of these two serial numbers!
To try and help, the watch is stainless steel (body and back) with a face diameter of 25mm. It is in perfect running order and keeps fairly good time.
Any help with more precise years of manufacture or values or anything else for that matter will be much appreciated, thanks
Richard
