Omega - Hi everyone

Hi everyone

I got a similar look as Graham's watch except the markers and it is a quick set date.

The cal should be 563 or 565 I don't know until the case opened.It's keeping very good time so I don't want to have the case opened to see the movement.Just wait for the next service.

Hi anaesdoc, For me the date numbers do not look odd at all - it may be a different iteration. The number "1" is written in "German mode" whereas in your examples it is written in the "Angloamerican mode" maybe this is the reason for the difference? kind ...

Point taken, Erich!

That´s why I wanted the experts to give their opinion. My "expertise" constitutes itself from the limited numbers of watches I own, which is not much! Kind regards, anaesdoc

very nice piece Robi.

Great to hear from you Erich. The dial is just like the way it left the factory years ago,no imperfections detected.That's why I love it and a "tough guy"on dial finish like you must love it too.(still remember my Bienne restored Omega?)..... Happy Valent...
