Here is a picture of the movement and one that shows the serial number
Dear Art, thank you very much for trying your best to find answers to this Omega riddle. I am posting a picture of the movement of the watch and a blow-up which shows its serial number as requested by the moderator. Please allow me to clarify a number of points :
1. This watch is 100% original Omega and does not appear to have been altered in any way. The dial has not been touched or modified. As a seasoned collector for almost 30 years who has handled hundreds of watches and seen thousands, please rely on my judgement.
2. The watch was originally mounted on a bracelet (almost certainly gold to match the head) as there are traces of this on the lugs.
3. The caseback does not show any traces whatsoever of alteration.
I hope Omega will help me to solve this problem. I have been given the email address their archivist and expect to receive a reply in the next few days. I will of course keep you posted !
In the meantime I would love to hear the take of the moderator...

Very rare 18K gold Seamaster 300 chronograph
I would appreciate any information about this massive and very rare Omega Seamaster. I could not find any other similar example; the gold dial with blue waves makes it quite special. Probably the heaviest watch ever produced by Omega. The serial number st...
The year is 1993 or 1994
After some research the serial number for that type of watch corresponds to the year 1993 or 1994. First ever solid gold Bond type Seamaster Chrono 300 ?
Can you ....
Have the case open and take a picture of the case back inside? If possible, a picture of the movement and the movement serial will be helpful. This will allow a query to the Omega database. Thanks, Nilo
Back photo
Here is a photo of the back. I have just received the "Extract of the Archives" for "this" watch and it is wrong ! It gives under "metal" : Titanium / Gold; my watch does not have a milligram of titanium and is entirely made of gold. As a result the watch...
Your thread has remained pinned to the top of the forum for over a week . . .
. . . in the hope that it would elicit replies from community experts. Unfortunately, they never materialized. I will now weigh in with my assessment; it should be noted that the opinion expressed is solely my own, and also that it is not accepted by our ...

Could help to untangle this mystery. Make sure to include a shot of the movement serial number. Thanks, Nilo

My opinion, as Nilo will attest, was that your specimen . . .
. . . is genuine. An originally fitted gold bracelet would be costly, but certainly not impossible. Its origins are still mysterious; I hope more information comes your way, and that you'll share it with us once confirmed. Cordially, Art

Fleurdecoin, Today I went to my watchmaker and his team not only vouched that your Gold Seamaster is real but one of the team stated that he did a full maintenance in one of this gold model (with the gold bracelet!!!). They check all pictures, including t...
