·Good morning
I have a 9 ct gold Omega hallmarked 1952 with a Cal. 265 movement. Everything looks period-correct, but the serial is in the 36-million range, which would normally date to the early 1970s.
The engraving appears factory-done, though the balance bridge has a slightly redder tone than the rest of the movement. Could this be a later Omega service-replacement bridge carrying a newer serial range?
Has anyone seen similar late-numbered 26x-series examples or know how Omega handled replacement bridges in the 1970s?
Many thanks
