Omega Back Plate Interpretation

[seabreeze60]

Does anyone know how to interpret the information on the back plate from an Omega Seamaster? Circa 1975.

Also, I think the second photo is a replacement Omega caliber 1425 Quartz. My local watch guy thought it looked OK, but in reality, I need to pass it by the forum. What do you think?

Thanks

Hi

The inside case "normally" has the case number (model) that we can then look up on OMEGA Database, but I do not recognize that code at all.

Is there any numbers in the outside of back case
ALSO
Is the number beside the battery (caliber number) 1525 or 1625 - neither of with seems an OMEGA caliber

Case back info = Stainless steel case with gold-plated bezel.
Not sure on the specific reference number listed.
Movement is a cal. 1425 as used in the Seamaster Quartz, but I can't speak to originality.

This is the watch I purchased in Vienna with the model number you described. The movement is a CAL 1425. The back plate and Crown appear original. The rest IMHO, a remodel.

Runs perfect. The original watch was probably trashed and purchased by the watchmaker at a steep discount. He is in the business of reworking old Omegas. My price was cheap by our standards. Light, runs perfect and refurbished. Oh well!
