For me, very different watches at different price points:
£2500 is a reasonable price for a Watchco - perhaps five hundred more with service and warranty.
£5000 would be the new SM300 and you'll get a proper Omega warranty.
£7500 (?) would be my estimate for a very good vintage SM300.
If you buy a Watchco, there are a few points to look out for - the most obvious is that the bezel triangle is aligned at 12 and not half a minute out. They often have mismatched lume colours and generally need a service.
I can only afford the lowest priced one!
I wear mine a lot and have made a few for people, all of whom enjoy them without the fear of damaging their vintage watches.
Cheers, Chris
