Interesting pair; I like the OP green dial!!! Had some Omega vintage watches and never really warmed up to them. Might be due to the difficulty in sorting through the enormous catalog of watches which Omega has made and choosing the good ones.

No idea of the reference, it has a 30T2 movement and is from the mid 1940s.

The omega is a really attractive watch. Perfect design, classic, simple, and is perfectly complemented by the NATO.

Not the "pair" I was hoping to see

Is that olive dial the same as the one on the RG DD?

Cheers guys
Those old Omegas are a bargain, I bought this one for €300, and it houses one of the best manual movements ever made

Yes the same colour green, but the dial is of course slightly different
