I do not know what the model is called, but I have seen it before. It may have the case reference on the insides of the case back. |

I have one of those models on my bench right now, however, mine has thick straight lugs. These "bottlecap" Omega models are relatively scarce and aren't documented in the Omega Vintage Database, thought they quite genuine and original. In addition to the different lug styles offered, they were also issued in 2 different case sizes: a 32mm midsize and a 34/35mm full size. My watch is powered by a 17-jewel 28 PC AM (cal 361) with a 10.89 million serial number. It has an Omega-signed Swiss-made 14K case with an odd case reference number (10643419). Greg |

Greg - Thank you very much for taking the time to respond. This watch is very dear to me. It was my father's watch and was given to me after he passed. I don't know anything about it. I have tried to have it opened to get the mumbers from the case and movement but am having trouble finding a jeweler who will take the chance... Anyfurther informatioin you can tell me about the watch would be appreciated. Bruce - |
