: Several things: Omega watches of this era had
: two serial numbers on gold watches.
: The movement had a serial number, which can
: date the watch. Your movement could be from
: between 1944 and 1951, but most likely about
: 1945.
:If the movement does not have a
: calibre number, it is from before 1949.
Couldn't spot it - it's definitely from before 1949.
: The other serial number is engraved in the
: interior case back and is similar in format
: but not the same number as the movement
: number, like 10xxxxxx. An Omega logo and a
: model number of 4 digits should also be
: engraved in the inside case back.
The interior case back is filled with inscriptions - I could spot 7 of them - the one that looked more original is the smallest - and had definitely been engraved by a machine - it has given my loupe and my eyes a bit of a problem.
The movement is similar to the drawing you posted.
