This is a one of a kind watch, and i wonder how much it is worth?
I maybe just should keep it, since you cant find another one in a lifetime if i sell this. But I am looking to buy a Blue Tudor Snowflake Watch instead...

It is a NOS
It is unused with original strap according to watchmaker

CAL 601
REF: 135.027

 

Interesting. IMHO (real) NOS may command a premium of 30-50% compared to mint. Does that help?

Hard to tell, does it come with box & papers?

 

New Old Stock means in its original packaging with tags papers etc and no wear at all. Your pictures say different. This watch is in great shape but NOS and one of a kind?

The term NOS is abused and often mentioned for watches assembled from service parts and a lesser watch movement, it feels

 

How can you be sure it wasn't assembled from service parts? Places like WatchCo in Australia have these parts and can make a watch like that - and often do.

If it were NOS (a misunderstood and abused term as mentioned above) it would come with it's box, papers, and most likely hang tags too (as also mentioned above).

 

Feels like I started a bashing of the watch. I want to repeat that I love the watch. I like it a lot more than a Tudor Blue Snowflake...It is just not NOS.

 

I like the watch too - but it has huge potential to be overpriced.

 

OK, I agree with what has already been said and I´ll just add that this is the manual 601 and not the more valuable automatic version. It is also missing the steel bracelet which won´t be cheap to source. It is however in very nice shape, with a blemish free bezel, so....

...I´d value it in a private sale, as is, with no service history at between 500 and 650 Euros.

Hope this helps!

 

You mean you would like to buy it in a private sale for that price ?

 

Well, I´m no valuer, and the watch, although nice, is not something that I would buy as I have the automatic version.

So I value it based purely on a combination of what I have seen others sell for, in various states of condition, with and without bracelets, considered together with a hypothetical amount that I would be prepared to pay for it.

Of course this is all in my opinion and I´m sure there are many people out there who would pay more or less for it depending on where they are with their collection/addiction

 

Agreed but NOS is NOS imho.

 

lot of dirrerent bids... if i should sell it i want about 2000euros i think? might bbe to much. i have seen them in bad shape sell for a 1000 euros...

but one big thing s also if it is worth collecting, because in this shape it will not be used by me, just laying collecting dust

 

i got a omega arcive document saying 1968 , so that is the year

 

Is it a REAL vintage watch or is it a put-together with service parts? Without the box and papers (which a true NOS watch has) you have to err on the side of caution. €2000 is a LOT of money to ask for a watch without proof of anything.

 

i have the extract of the arcives and it is sent to the same location in scandinavia where i live and bought the watch

 

Service parts for these have not been available for a looong time, unlike the 300s.

This watch is more like mint and not NOS. As others have noted a truly NOS watch should include an original strap/bracelet along with boxes and papers.

Omega archive document really adds nothing to the equation.

 

ok, so selling it for 1600Euros would be better then?

i understand the NOS things in this
