Hi,
I've had this rose-gold Omega pocket watch for quite some time and,would you believe, I've only just noticed that there is no visable serial number shown on the movement.
The dial has the Omega logo, the inside cover is signed with the Omega name and logo, and the movement is also signed - but no number ! The rear case and dust cover both bear the same case serial number 3290553 (which dates it to around 1903/4 ).
All the other Omegas I've owned have all had a serial number but not this one -- do I have any reason to be concerned or did this sometimes happen ?

Good question. I suppose anything is possible. I can not see any detail in the pics so find it difficult to say anything beyond that.

Thanks - I'll post clearer photos tomorrow so that you can better see the movement , logos etc.

Hi,
I've attached a few clearer pics of the watch which might help a bit.

Well, the 'omega' looks like the lettering used on some of their older watches. Unless you bought this from someone in the Ukraine, I would suspect even without the serial number it has a good chance of being legitimate.

Possibly others will offer their ideas...

I actually bought in the UK about seven years ago or so.

Thanks for the link -- I've had a look and I think you are right. It certainly looks the same.
Thanks
