: Thanks for the photos.

: This watch does not look similar to other Omega pocket watches I
: have seen. There does not appear to be markings on the movement
: that identify the watch as Omega, which are typically present,
: nor a serial number used after 1894 or so.

: It was a common practice to sell watch movements and cases
: separately in many parts of the world, allowing the purchaser
: the option to spend on what was important to him: accuracy
: (movement) or appearance (case). Thus, the case markings may be
: no indication of origin. Similarly, watch faces are easily
: exchanged.

Hello, thank you for your information.
I haven't the foto of the inside of the case where the numbers and letters are marked. All numbers and letters are there. There is Bienne Geneve etc. I bought the watch in a place where many peaple of Swizerland emigrated therefore I think it is original of Omega, good conserved and working. It is rare to find this kind of watches there. I liked it so much that I bought it.:-). regards
