Hello, a newbie here. Hope you guys are well and kicking. Recently purchased an omega timepiece and in need of the experts' opinions on this. Thank you very much for all of your advices.
I think the OP wants you to tell him he made a good deal. The rest of that info is readily available on the internet, with about a minute's research.
The dial looks to have been cleaned, to the point that the minute markers and half of Seamaster are gone.
Dont you ever get tired of being rude to new members? Why should any one post here in a forum for help, discussion and advice, if they just get an answer that they can do there own research?
As was mentioned above, I'm afraid your watch is a bit of a mess. If you like it and would wear it, by all means keep it. But if you are able to return it, you should consider doing so.

Hello, seems like it was a terrible newbie mistake. Thanks for all your responses anyways. I shall do some more readings.
Well, don't be discouraged. It would only be a terrible mistake if you paid a lot for it. It looks cool and the movement seems clean...I see potential there! I bought an old Constellation for cheap that everyone here told me was garbage, but with TLC and a good watchmaker is now resurrected! That watch had no bezel at all and was missing two gold hour markers. I've just seen pictures so far, but it looks amazing! Could be same for you!
