Re: Interesting eBay Auctions
I am no expert but everything I have ever read says no. I would think it is a redial and if I wanted it would point that out to the seller and try to negotiate the price down quite a bit.bmsm wrote:Is this Omega with Cali dial real? Did Omega ever made a watch with cali dial?

Poor custom redial, this omega exists in ref 2445-1 case with bumper movement but with different dial... Here is example https://www.catawiki.com/l/35277341-ome ... 1-men-1950jbglock wrote:I am no expert but everything I have ever read says no.

Re: Interesting eBay Auctions
Is that band just for display or is there a trick to fasten it?

Re: Interesting eBay Auctions
Anyone from HF got this one. I am curious whether it was sf240 or notmykeos wrote: ↑April 7th, 2020, 11:25 am I think it's 99% chance it's not a sf240 (compass on top has much thinner bezel than the ones with sf240 and the stem has a thickening only seen on 32mm "other" 8 day movements),but one can never be sure.The seller has been helpful,but he doesn's dare to open the case and make photos of the back.The seller is trustworthy,though,I bought a sixsome from him in 2019 and it all went well.

Re: Interesting eBay Auctions
Indeed non alarm, but whether its 240 or the other small 8 day movement, many times found in angelus (ot abercrombie branded) weather station, remains an open question.Yoda wrote: ↑April 9th, 2020, 6:12 amUnless the alarm hand was hidden under one of the hands, it is a non alarm.
