A unknow model *PIC* Posted By: Sneakdog Date: 9/11/07 01:00 GMT Is anyone can tell me what is this model? I intend to buy it from the second hand market, but I not sure is this the authentic Omega watch. Pls provide the info. if you know, thanks. This is not so much an unknown model... I own one and in fact I have done a bit of a write up on this product line [which is a bit of an "In Progress" effort I'm afraid]: |
The 176.0014 was offered with two different styles of bracelet, the "Bar" bracelet like the example you show, and what I call the "Link" bracelet. Personally I prefer the Bar, although I own an example of both.
In addition, the 176.0014 was offered with two different styles of dials: a Matte-Black finish dial [which I personally am more partial to] and a "Sunburst" dial, like on the example you have posted the picture of. My Bar Bracelet model has the Matte Dial, whilst my Link VBracelet example sports the Sunburst dial. I've seen many examples with various combinations of either dial and either bracelet to believe that Omega sold them in each possible combination.
As for the authenticity of the example you included the picture of... It's very difficult to determine authenticity based on one picture, but I do not see any Red Flags in what litte I can see with that scan. If you'd post more pictures, I'd be happy to look and comment.
but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I really did like the TV Dial models when I obtained them. This was a GREAT line of watches Omega made back in the day, and it's a double damn dirty shame that they no longer make these models! |
