I agree on more shots for the grey, seeing just the front is mildly annoying. I have reached out to the seller before and he seemed nice enough, hoping bargaining will lead to an ok or more than ok deal. I agree with your taste, the date only keeps up with the minimalistic elegance of the piece to my eyes. Thank you for the advice and info! The mint quality on the white one has me slightly nervous and guilty about wearing it too...

Here is a very descent C-case Connie for significantly less than you have been considering. The brick bracelet is super cool too!

That is a cal 1011 watch. It will be a bit smaller and thinner than the cal. 561/564 examples shown above.

That is why it sells for a bit less.

I think you need to post higher resolution pictures from different angles.

While the grey dial has some obvious flaws, the silver dial watch looks to have some paint flaking off on the markers. However, it could be reflective glare from the crystal or the camera angle causing it to look like that.

At the prices being offered, you should expect a good dial.

Thank you! More to keep in mind while bartering with the seller. Aside from the scratches on the grey dial is there anything significant that bothers you? What about the gunk looking stuff on the end of the omega logo on the grey one?
