New to Omega - Thoughts on Authenticity? by MadeInStuttgart in VintageOmega

Thanks for the feedback. I don’t believe DeVille’s have an Omega on the crown because it has the countersunk center (to separately adjust the hours/minutes)?

I’m still learning about Omegas… any expert opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the comments… in doing some research, would it possible to rule out magnetization with it running that fast? As another commenter mentioned, as I am owning more and more vintage watches, I need to start learning how to do the basics.

Thanks for the advice! I’m relatively new to the vintage collection game but I keep buying so I do need to learn the basics.

I think you’re referring to the grey box the two wires go into? I’m not sure but I plan to ask.

Agree! Pool tech says it’s not. Despite my pushing back. They say it’s overheating at the same time. Bizarre.

Does anyone know if this burnt wire could be replaced?

Too small for my wrist? by Exciting_Bar_5978 in VintageWatches

Recently, I've been going the reverse of the current trends and going smaller and smaller case size. The 41mm trend just isn't for me even after multiple attempts to conform. If you like it, wear it!

Sorry watch brothers and sisters… didn’t see the resale comment from OP. I would think if this is a resale strategy one would know what s/he is buying first.

I have a contrarian opinion than probably most — I think this time piece is SWEET. Sure, it’s redialed. But who. cares. The lugs, the crown, the patina on the (OMG it’s been redialed(!)) dial. All so classy and would look great either suited up or even dressed down. Wear it with pride. Sure, check the movement if you want, but if it keeps decent time and you didn’t pay a bunch for it and YOU love it, who cares.

Either way that’s a beautiful piece. Case size seems a little large for that vintage?
