Frankly, I have doubts about the legitimacy . . .
. . . of the watch, and was asking for movement and inner caseback images to dispel them.
First, the Masonic symbol is not present on the dial, which is unusual. Every such watch I've seen, Omega or otherwise, has the square and compass somewhere on the dial. It's pertinent to note that using the symbol without sanction would be a problem for the seller, opening the door to legal action. Second, I'm dubious about the symbol indicated at 7, as the handshake is not supposed to be a publicized symbol of the Fraternity. Third, the case - and in particular, the bezel - doesn't seem quite right; the hallmarks of Omega design aren't present here.
I feel we need more in the way of movement and caseback images to assess the authenticity of this one.
Cordially,

Any Masonic Omega collectors out there...
I've got this one Omega and another Hamilton; Being a Mason it's a little specialty of mine; I'm always on the lookout for a good quality Masonic watch; Any ideas on year or 'provenance'? Thanks, Vinny....
Forgot to Mention...
That it's stamped 18k somewhat crookedly on the back...good wear and colour as well
This might be a legitimate Omega . . .
. . . with a dial commissioned domestically, but it's not possible to tell without images of the movement and inner caseback. Please share them at your earliest opportunity. Cordially, Art
No, they are different watches
Hi, just looked and there are three on eBay with similar dials - but either different case, or different hands, or different subseconds dial. These are oviously common gold Omegas with a shared redialling theme, as the seller of almost all of those on eBa...
