Hi

My dad gave my mum a gold Omega as a wedding present in the late 60's - I remember it (the watch, not the wedding) well.

Sadly, the watch was lost about 10 years ago when it slipped from her wrist on the way to work, never to be seen again.

I would very much like to replace it with an identical model.

Where do I start working out which one it was?

I know it was an Omega, gold, on a gold link strap. Very petite, almond face.

If anyone can point me in the direction of an on-line catlogue of past models, I would pick it out of a line-up any day.

To make life difficult, I won't involve my parents in this quest. wink

Thank you

HarryW

A bit of a long search needed as you have no details to go on. ~If it exists it will be in the vintage Omega site, perhaps as a starter I'd narrow you search to movements say for the 600 series.

In my opinion, youd be better off trawling t'internet for .pdf brochures from the correct period. When youve identified the correct model then you can start looking to buy one.
