Re: SWISS MADE LOGO
In Response To: SWISS MADE LOGO ()

: I OWN TWO PREBOND OMEGA 2OOM WATCHES THEY ARE IDENTICAL EXCEPT ONE
: HAS GOLD TRIM AND ONE DOES NOT. THE WATCH THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE
: GOLD TRIM HAS A DIAL THAT IS MISSING THE TINY SWISSMADE LOGO AT
: THE EXTREME BOTTOM OF THE DIAL.. IS THERE A REASON FOR THE LACK
: OF THIS LOGO. THE WATCH AND MOVEMENT ARE OBVIOSLY OMEGA MADE.

Hard to say without a photo.

See the guide above on "Including Photos In Your Messages"

Often, an inappropriate crystal distorts the view of the edge of the dial so that the "Swiss Made" is not readily visible.

It is also possible the dial has been refinished.

Swiss Made became the wording on genuine Swiss watches in the early 1960s, I believe. Prior to that, Swiss was used. But an Omega should have some wording on it.
