I'm fairly new to omegas only been looking at them for a couple of months.

But i think i may have a fake.

It just don't look or feel right.

calibre 671

movement number 214543355

case number 165004.

It might just be me, but it looks like its been cobbled together.

Here's some oics

sorry there not the best.

Any opinions would be helpful.

be lucky

Its a mid size Omega Seamaster Deville  from the mid 60's it looks legit, it is missing its seconds hand but the hour and minute hand look correct, the dial has suffered a bit over the years, it has a lot of service marks scratched into the back of the case I think this watch is all present and correct apart from the seconds hand.

Also if the bezel is gold coloured its probably 14kt gold,

    • Here is the insert ring for rectangular or elliptical movements: Note that the length is the side with the stem cut out on the spreadsheet (in the picture below this is 15.15: Here is the fake pdf file, again you need to convert to .zip after download to access the FreeCAD and 3mf files.

    • as you took the mainspring out what did it look like? It's amazing how much amplitude you can get if the mainspring actually has the proper shape. last week I was doing a 12 size Hamilton and was very much surprised with the beautiful back curvature the mainspring had. Then the watch had a really nice amplitude the group would be so proud it was 350 until I dropped the lift angle down to 38 that drop the amplitude quite a bit below 300. then with the beautiful back curve it still had really nice amplitude the next day. I really wish all my mainspring's look like this as the watch had beautiful amplitude the next day. So many of the aftermarket pocketwatch Springs I see now do not have anything resembling a back curve may be a slight curve and that's about all. They still work but they just don't work as nice as a properly made spring. then Omega as all sorts of nifty technical documentation unfortunately every single corner is watermarked with where it came from who downloaded it etc. very paranoid company. On the other hand I will snip out images like from the document on recycling a mainspring barrel. for instance here's the section on what your mainspring should look like. water damaged a lot of times means rust was there rust on this watch?
    • I dont understand why a patreon membership would have limited places ??
    • Welcome to the forum, enjoy. It’s highly unlikely you will be able to purchase a new bezel look on eBay for a pulsar watch for repair to find a bezel.
