Can someone shed some light if this is true?

 

Sorry here are the pics

 

This came from
Pg. 787 Omega " a journey through time" cal 1332

 

The pic from Journey Theough Time didn't work. Why do you say there are only 5 around?

 

The picture was from the book, ill try again.
well thats what the salesmen at omega told me, he said based off the year and what-not.
the likely hood of how many are left.

 

this is what the text read
" 1332 R 25.60 Q SCS CAL CORH CORM CORS 17p 32 KhZ 1979 Leapard extra-flat (25.6x28x2.9) - Seamaster, Constellation, De Ville- 219,000 pieces "

 

Wouldn't believe that for a second. The idea that 218,995 watches have been destroyed, not realistic at all.

 

Wouldn't matter if it was the last one, it's not going to win any beauty awards and quartz to boot.

 

Flashbacks from Saturday Night Fever / Studio 54. eeeesh :-/

 

i think we've had at least three pop up on the website as inherited watches just in the last twelve months. That salesman is an arse.

 

May be the last of five from the seven he got 20 odd years ago.

Bet he's a uncle as well.....

 

so what could i sell this piece for gentlemen?

 

As has been implied above, it's not particularly desirable. I'd check for completed listings on eBay for the same or similar watches to gauge the market.

 

If it's solid gold, weigh it.

 

this exact watch i can guarantee you that you will not find it anywhere online.that is why the salesmen said what he said.
it is very unique.

it is 10k gold filled, which is another factor that makes it very rare most omegas were 14k or 18k,
the older ones were 10k

 

I'm glad I read this earlier, before the OP deleted the story.

well if you read closely there where 219,00 pieces made of seamaster, constellation, and deville. so you take 219,00 and divid that by 3, you get
7,300.

after 35 years 7,300 you divide that by 3.5 (thats the number he told me)
1 for each decade.
i honostly dont remember exatctly now im puzzled myself. lol

 

well ive looked,
over and over and over,
and i dont mind being proved wrong, and i dont mind if you get a laugh or giggle out of proving me wrong, im just trying to find out myself and so i came to a forum where i was hoping i could get some help.....

 

You dropped a zero in your math.
The wall you will hit is simply the style of the watch. Not desirable right now. If you put it up on ebay with a $.99 starting price, the market will tell. I would guess $100 to $200. Just a guess, though.
This site has many avid Omega collectors following closely. If the watch was in high demand, you would see several PMs in your in box......
