: it costs to replace and clean, but I'm
: unsure of the make and model, information

: perhaps?) ask.

: Here's the information I've got: 1. It's

: steel.
: 2. It has the words: omega, automatic, geneve,
: on the face.
: 3. The face is white/silvery.
: 4. The back has the omega insignia.
: 5. I can't seem to find any identifying numbers

: don't have the tools, b. methinks it's a bit
: expensive to toy around with.

: Here's some pics.

: Can you tell me what make/model and what year
: it was made?

You do realize your image is reversed.

This is a late 1960s early 1970s likely with a calibre 565 or 1012 (I think).

If you want make, model and year, you have to open the watch and get the numbers . . .
