    I don't buy much on Ebay, but I found this old Omega from about 1938. My offer of $500 was accepted, which I figured to be a fair price. It looks original to me, someone correct me if I'm wrong. 1930's Omegas and Longines fascinate me. Please excuse the poor quality images, they're all I have right now.

    Nice watch, though obviously the hour hand has been relumed.

    That's fine with me. I might as well have the minute hand relumed as well. At that age I've had lume crumble from breathing on it.

    Thanks guys. I thought it was a great price for Ebay. Although it's coming from Slovakia, seller "order-1939". I've been following him for quite some time.
