no serial number... ?




so this is my watch. i'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out if its real... when it was made... and why i can't find one similar anywhere.

all i know is that the case and the band are supposedly solid 18k yellow gold... and its a manual wind up. ladies watch... of course.
the back of the case reads: omega watch 18k 0.750 swiss made. and theres a number to the left that's sideways... 12.
the face reads: omega 23 (which i was told was the jewels) antimagnetic
as you can see, the band is mesh with a design in it. a jeweler told me he's guessing its from the late 70's.
Yet... i can't find a serial number... and neither could the jeweler. we looked everywhere. not on the movement or the case and it has no lugs. the band was soldered to the case.
there were however 3 characters almost impossible to see on the movement. can't really remember the order now but it was something like 1C0 or perhaps 0C1. and i have no idea what that means.
i'm desperate for answers. can anyone help me?!
