Be happy! nt

: 485 is the model number of the watch movement
: inside the case. It is based on the Omega
: 480 movement, which was introduced in 1955.

: That is the serial number of the watch. Send it
: by email to Omega at watch@omega.ch and they
: can give you specific details on your watch,
: such as wehn it was made.

: That price does not sound unreasonable. If you
: are happy, then you got a good deal. Beyond
: that, it is hard to say without having a
: watchmaker look at the insides to be sure it
: is in condition equal to the price you paid.
