: Does it look anything like this?

:

: The watch pictured is my 8217-S "No-Model
: Name" early-1950's era c.321 Omega
: chronograph. At the time, there were no
: Speedmasters and the Seamaster had only been
: on the scene for about 4-5 years and Omega
: still made Chronographs with no model names.

: I don't have any further information on my
: example, but if you were able to get a
: serial number off of the movement of yours
: and sent it to Omega via their vintage
: information service, they may be able to
: provide you with some additional background
: information.

: For your convenience, I've placed a link to the
: portal on Omega's site.

: Good Hunting!

Thanks! It is almost exactly the same. Mine is gold with a V instead of the 12 on the dial, but it is the same watch! I will get the serial number off of it and see what the factory says!
