Is this a genuine Omega?

Can anyone offer an opinion on the genuineness of this rather peachy-looking piece?

It has an additional name on the dial. My assumption is that this is the original selling jeweller, in the same way the Neiman Marcus and Tiffany have put their name on OE branded watches.

It looks in nice condition and tickes a lot of theboxes for me (clean stylling, open-faced, blued hands, Roman numerals, etc.) but before I get too bid-happy (I've already put in a modest bid), a second opinion would be nice. It ends Sunday evening, to there's not much time to waste! All input is appreciated, even if it's to say, "Are you out of your mind you crazy fool!"
