·Hi guys
So sorry if i am really asking stupid questions, but I just don't know anything about vintage watches.
For a longer time I have been looking for a classy dress watch and I think I fell in love with the look of the Omega Geneve from the 70s. And it should not cost more than 800 Euros.
I would like an automatic one. But since there are a lot of them, it is really hard to decide.
I have found two potential candidates with the reference number 166.041.

and
https://www.chrono24.ch/omega/omega...52-movement-in-mint-condition--id21267085.htm
But I can't really spot that much of a difference in the tear and wear. Do you think the first one is too cheap to be true? Or the second one just too expensive?
And generally, what would you say 565 vs 552 calibar, which is better?
Or what do you think about following (ref. 135041, i really like the look of that one and the price, but it is not an automatic)
https://www.chrono24.ch/omega/omega...-135041--cal601--vintage-1965--id30446738.htm
Or anybody knows a reference for the same look but just with an automatic movement?
Thanks a lot in advance!
