Morning, Inhave just got this 1970s Omega -can anyone tell me anything about it?  The back appears to be missing the centre piece? It seems to be working fine and keeping excellent time

Can I get the glass replaced somewhere in the U.K.?

Many thanks

I don't suppose you want to take the back off so we can see what's inside?

then if you ever do take the back off you want to be really careful as getting anything resembling replacement parts for this is almost impossible. They were made a huge quantity and they're just really difficult to get parts and they tend to be very expensive.

I also swiped an image off online the constellation back's are supposed to have that inside. Maybe somebody swiped it for the gold I didn't realize they came off?

Then for the crystal it looks like flat glass which means almost anybody could put that in but you don't want to trust that movement anybody as I said getting it fixed or dealing with problems with it will be a big issue. If you want the actual crystal number we would need the number off the inside of the case back as I don't see a serial number on the outside anywhere in your pictures

    • Thanks Mark, but can we still discuss the other important matter please and not be distracted from it. Thank you.
    • You're probably not going to see a dramatic change but you should probably figure out what the lift angle is as it probably is not 52°
    • In tandem with my last post regarding the removal of Google Adsense on this website - I have also decided to fully self fund this site as a gift to the watch repair community of which I’ve been a member of, and have benefited from since being extremely lucky to gain an apprenticeship back in the late 80s.    Well, that means that I have also closed down my Patreon account - or, to be clear, stopped all future transactions on my Patreon account and this is with immediate and permanent effect.    not to mention, but I will, I really really do appreciate the contribution all my patreon and PayPal supporters have provided over the years, you guys have been absolutely awesome and helped to keep this forum alive and available for those who might not be able to afford the payments.    again, from the bottom of my heart thank you.     
    • My pleasure. I would rather pay more than have those annoying ads ruin this site. They were a terrible idea and something I never even saw much, but I was on my iPad yesterday testing a security update for the forum software and it was impossible. I decided then - they had to go!!! Also, co-incided with this, for those who are paying for pattern in order to help fund this site - I’ve just disabled patreon. Future monthly payments will not be taken.  PayPal is a little more complicated. I will try to work out how to cancel the few subscriptions but if you are a PayPal donator then please feel free to cancel the monthly sub.  I will, however thank you all from the bottom of my heart for helping to contribute to this site financially - it means a lot. But going forward, I’m funding it personally from my pocket and that’s the end of it 😄
    • Thank you Mark it definitely makes the site looked much nicer. Although I didn't mind the ads as long as it helped to pay for the messageboard but sometimes when you had the feeling that there were more ads than message board yes it was a little annoying. Thank you
