I know this isn’t a perfect example, but does everything look ok here for around $300? Please educate me! Thanks

Not bad at $300 USD, maybe a bit high with the dirty dial and worn case.....you know it will be roughly 34mm, correct?

Looking at the lugs, it appears to be a damaged gold-filled or gold-shell case. Take a close look at that and decide if you will be happy with it.

With that much damage to the case it would be a hard pass at half that price.

I am mostly okay with the condition. What I’m not sure of is if the price matches up with the condition. Do you think it’s reasonable? Would I have trouble reselling in the future at a slight loss?

Yeah I’m okay with the size. Mostly worried about the price, but I’ve had trouble finding stuff in significantly better condition in that range. Thanks for the reply

I am located in Europe and it’s difficult to find Omegas below 250-300€, whatever the condition is pretty much. Not sure about the US. So it really boils down to whether you think you can wear it and enjoy it, given the damage, and perhaps how desperately you want one.

TBH, the case is ruined, and will be very difficult to sell. $300 is really not the price range for an acceptable Omega, although sometimes you can get luck at a yard sale or thrift store. $300 will get you a decent watch from other brands.
