Warm welcome here
Hunting an Olimpico can be quite hard and sometimes you find surprises, not always bad. We have seen that even the manufacture does not have a full archive with all details on the older Olimpicos, so sometimes you find something that is not known but genuine.
Sorry to hear about the movement issue. My major concern is that I believe (again, I do not have 100% proof) that this dial belongs into a different case, the Ref 9245. The seconds hand seems to also come from another watch. The case looks more like an Olimpico 9075 but then the bezel I have not seen elsewhere before.
Is there any number between the lugs at 6 or numbers inside/outside the case back?
There is a possibility that this is a "custom-assembled" watch, if I may say so.
Best,

I had some login issue and I registered again. There is no reference number between lugs but the case back contains GP stamp and a number: 539571. I couldn't find a similar looking bezel in any other GP too. Hmm. worse If we can't confirm the authenticity...
Welcome here!
Please post photos of the inside and outside of the case back. Also the crown do not look to be the same in the sellers photo and yours... Please take a photo of that one as well. From there we might be able to tell more. Best Blomman
Thank you again!
Wow. I have to admit that I haven't noticed that the crown is different from his pictures. I don't have the watch at my hand at the moment. I took a snap from inside yesterday, which I posted in my reply to CC. The listing (on ebay) that I purchased: 1920...
From photos I would say.....
This is a very suspicious watch... For sure I would say the crown and the second hand is replaced. The dial looks like the ref 9245. The case looks like ref 9075, but the case back do not match the 9075. Normally the ref number would either be between the...
