Crown logo identification

Hello, I am new to this forum, and, ironically, my first question is about a brand other than Rolex, but I have enjoyed reading a lot of threads and learning about why Rolex is such a venerable brand.

My question is, can anyone help me identify the maker of the crown that is shown in the attached photo? it almost looks like an Omega logo, but not quite.

Your expertise is appreciated!

Maybe it's just a heavily polished Omega logo? It seems very round.

My guess as well.

I agree with the over polished Omega.

It's a Caravelle signed crown - from the Caravelle watch line.

I own over 100 Omega's.
This is a Caravelle crown, 100%. No ifs ands or buts.

Then I could say, yes, you're right, but you'd already know that! I found the photographic proof I needed, so now I know it too. Thanks, again, very much.
