Hi! Wonderful Omega Wristwatches. I have 1 Omega year - 1952, in caliber 265, original Omega red star dial, in my country it was very common for this caliber 265 to also have a Red Star on the Omega dial. The dial is completely algorithmic without numbers, almost the same as your caliber 265 year -1950. Thanks.

That's very interesting! Thanks for sharing your experience!

1950s is a real favorite - it has a little of everything. All timepieces presented are so nice, but the 1958 Constellation is really very special; 1958 is a wonderful year😉; the awesome dial, the lugs, the bracelet, the jumbo serpent on the back, the movement - it checks so many boxes. Wonderful video, thanks again!

That's right! I couldn't agree more!

What is the material used in the movement that looks like copper. These movements look new even though they are very old. Thanks. Great video.

Another excellent video 🙏. The size of that factory! No wonder there’s still lots of stock around. Any idea if the copper plates are beryllium ?

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Thank you for the comment. Not all the parts are plated this way. I think you’ll find this tread interesting to read: omegaforums.net/threads/the-plating-omega-used-on-their-movements.127866/

Another very nice video, Sal. Thank for you for sharing your vast knowledge on vintage Omegas. Not sure if you’ve checked my channel, but I’m also sharing the comparatively limited knowledge I have on other Omega topics. Thank you and Happy New Year!

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Thank you! Happy New Year to you too. Just subscribed and watching the Ranchero video. :-)

I just got an Omega Seamaster circa 1970. Was passed down through family. Seem to run fine but the glass is quite scratched. Any advice?

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Try ordering a "polywatch" on ebay or amazon. If that does not remove all the scratches, then you may need to replace it.
