Verification and information on Omega Watch *PIC*

Hello

I recently inherited an Omega Watch from my father. (March 2010)

He had had the watch since new around 30-40 years ago.

At the time it was said that this particular watch was the thinnest watch ever made at that time. It is around the thickness of a quarter coin.

The Bracelet, which makes up most of the watch, being about an inch wide, was said to be solid Platinum or white gold. It has blue hands.

I have not sent it to an appraiser yet because I would like to find someone familiar with the watch, the time period made and any other information they may have. Someone with a personal interest would be great, such as them owning one themselves or knowing someone close to them that does. This Omega watch could be a "special edition watch" because I have found no information from just the photo I have and nothing Omega makes or made look like this.

If you are able to help out that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance

William Roach
