When the crown is unscrewed, turning it in the first position, which should wind the watch, instead, moves the hands. This leads me to believe that there is an issue with the keyless works, detailed here:

There’s some dust on the dial and a few fibers of unknown material. The owner didn’t like the logo, printed details, the date wheel, or the caseback. I can’t comment on all of that but I will say that every replica has its tells and finding all of them for a single replica is a lot of work. In the short time that I researched, the 4 that stuck out to me are the logo and the hour markers. When Omega applies the word OMEGA to their dials, the letters are strung together in the center of each letter. This replica strings them together at the bottom. The sides of the two 12 o’clock markers that face each other should be parallel. The replica manufacturer appears to have reused the same hour markers for the 12 o’clock marker. The hour markers themselves appear to be a bit short. The seconds hand is too. Lastly, the caseback is solid, when it should be display, in order to show the co-axial movement. But, since this obviously doesn’t have that, the manufacturer opted for solid. The owner also described the dial as “easy to scratch, like a sticker”. Under my loupe, I don’t see any scratches from the loose minute hand yet, but if everything is restored properly, there won’t be any reason for the dial to be scratched.
