Replica Globemaster 7407: Short Answer
Globemaster is an Omega name. Omega used it in 1952 for Constellation watches sold in the United States. The current Globemaster line sits in the Constellation family and carries an 8-digit reference that starts with 130.30 or 130.33. No Omega Globemaster reference 7407 appears in Omega's public catalog. A replica Globemaster 7407 is a copy of that watch sold by a third party. The 7407 code comes from the seller, not from Omega.
Replica means counterfeit. In the US, a copy that carries the Omega name or the Globemaster dial text is an infringing good. US Customs and Border Protection can seize it at import. Federal trademark law treats the sale as a violation.
What the Original Watch Is
Current Globemaster specs from Omega: 39 mm case, Master Chronometer certification by METAS, Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8900 or 8901, 60 hours of power reserve, 15,000 gauss magnetic resistance. Case metals are stainless steel, Sedna 18K gold, and yellow 18K gold. Dial options include steel, two-tone, and full gold.
Why 7407 Does Not Match Omega
Omega reference numbers for the Globemaster follow a pattern. The first three digits give the case and material code. A four-digit 7407 does not fit that pattern. Vintage Omega used four-digit codes in the 1950s and 1960s, for example 2782 and 2852 for Constellation models, but 7407 is not among them in the Globemaster record. Treat the number as a seller label.
What Sellers Mean by First Copy
Trade terms differ by market. First copy and AAAA are seller grades, not standards. No agency certifies them. A high grade copy can use a Chinese or Japanese automatic movement, a sapphire crystal, and a 316L or 904L steel case. A low grade copy uses a quartz movement and mineral glass.
Points to Check on Any Copy
- Case size. Measure it. A claim of 39 mm should match within 0.5 mm.
- Movement. Ask for the caliber number. Common copies use a Seagull ST21 or a Miyota 9015.
- Crystal. Sapphire resists scratches. Mineral glass does not.
- Dial text. Font weight and letter spacing differ from the original in most copies.
- Case back. Omega engraves a Seahorse medallion. Copies stamp it.
Legal and Customs Facts
US law bans import of goods that infringe a trademark. CBP can seize the shipment and destroy it. The buyer can face a civil penalty. Selling such a watch is a separate violation under the Lanham Act. Trademark owners record their marks with CBP to block infringing shipments.
Price Range
Copies of this type sell for about $80 to $400. The genuine Globemaster starts near $6,300 for steel on a leather strap and goes past $20,000 for gold. A price far under the real market is a signal of a copy.
Unknowns
No public record ties 7407 to an Omega product. We cannot confirm a factory name, movement grade, or serial for a watch sold under that code.
