Hello fellow Omega freaks. I was wondering if someone can share some general thoughts on this 165.024-64 with a cal. 552 movement, as my vintage Omega knowledge is limited. Been looking for one of these for a while and am thinking about pulling the trigger. Does it seem like it has all original parts, not including the band of course? Look like a decent buy if the price is right? (Sorry for the screenshot photos, I'm at work and can't do any better now)

 

Hands and dial are definitely later replacements.

 

+1 on hands and dial...not an easy find. Bezel correct for a '64. What's the asking price?

I found this quite helpful when looking for mine.

I would check the movement serial # too to confirm its appropriate for a '64.

Asking price is about $3k....

 

Movement is 19M that is not correct, should be 21M or 22M for 165.024-64 and a B-type bezel.

Seller did withdraw it after I asked about it...

 

I was wondering why you didn't bid on it.... Kinda had the feeling something wasn't right with it, seeing how no one at all bid on it. Thanks all for your input. uwsearch, you are the man!

 

and too expensive for me, I'm broke..

 

Hahaha! Vintage watch collecting seems to have that effect on wallets.
