Hello, my father bought an omega watch in Sweden when he was younger, and while he claims the watch is legitimate, I’ve had my doubts. Can any confirmations on its legitimacy be made from these pictures?

It's a real quartz Omega Deville from the 80s, looks good.

I'm sure that it's real, I have a women's version of this watch. It's gold plated, the plating may be coming off or it's just need polishing. And it was not about cheap watches - these watches were made very thin and lightweight on purpose, the idea was to make the watch as thin and light as possible.
