its a very nice dial although i cant tell you if its original or not

it looks very good, but i've never seen numerals like it on any other Omega so perhaps its a custom dial.

i'd quite like a pic of the caseback, i know its got an engraving on it which is why the hippocampus is missing, but i'd like to see it nonetheless.

i'll be looking in to see if it is original as it interests me greatly.

best

That's what I thought.I'm a little up set. What should I do now?Buy a good 552 movement and replace it?Just not sure if the dial would fit cal-552 from 550. You got a very nice watch here and lots of comments about it from members around the globe. Thanks...
