    Hello,

    I'm french. Sorry for my english...
    I've read your thread about fake vintage Omega. I want your advice. I'm searching for a Semaster like this. I think it's expensive, but it seems to be in very good conditions. Could you give me an idea if it could be a good purchase or not ? I'm not a watch specialist. I'm better in vintage cars ! But i like this model, very simple and timeless.

    Thanks !

    I'll not comment on the seller, but.........

    Any black dial Seamaster requires INTENSE analysis/inspection before purchase, you cannot do that over the internet.

    At 950 Euros it is priced way above my comfort level for this watch.

    I'll say no more.

    Hello JimInOz,

    Thanks for your comment. But, if I want this watch (the model, not particulary this one). How can I do without internet ? There is probably no chance to find it in my street ?

    Stated by seller ( not the best one out there either )

    Condition

    - Outside: Perfectly refurbished dial


    ( as Jim has said above black dial seamasters are the hardest to come by and this is the reason to be very careful)

    It is common for dealers to buy something like below from the Internet for a few hundred dollars and repainted the dial and charge 3 or 4 times the price

    (Randomly picked picture from the Internet)
