Valid points, but I'd counter with places like WatchCo that can assemble 'vintage' Omegas from leftover NOS parts. Add that many movements were interchangeable in many cases due to similar sizes (Omega and Longines), and it could be a watch made from parts bought from a retired watchmaker. Just a theory. I have no proof. Still, it made me wary enough to shoot an email out.

 

I don't blame you for being safe, but consider also that lower production movements are more likely to be "mismatched" with later cases, as well.

 

Another good point. However, after my PM I think you can see I have a safer bet in mind.

 

Forgot to mention: Look at the bid history and tell me if you think something VERY FISHY is going on with the 50 feedback eBay member who keeps pooching up the price in $10 increments.

 

LoL eagle eyes!!!

 

I'm still not too sure its a redial (point it out to me please?), but Mr Clymer of Hodinkee was watching this one as well:

91 bids with 5 days to go? Ten accounts though

 

There is a text that stipulates "
Due to trademark laws we cannot ship Rolex items internationally.

"

What does it means?

 

Did one of you snag this at the last second?

had my hands on it, but...

quite a nice watch though

 

If you're looking for an inexpensive alternative to an Omega black waffle dial, here's a Wittnauer that's worth shooting the seller an offer on:

It will need some TLC but could potentially be a nice daily driver.

 

Another decent Wittnauer:

A generic automatic (probably a 19A) that's reasonable given the condition:

I wish the dial didn't have those couple marks on it, but with just under a day this is currently well under market.
