·Why two threads and a post in a thread which specifically states "not for questions", on the same watch?

·I'm sure he afterwards found the correct thread. It's very handsome and is a genuine Omega, but there are no movement pictures. I don't see any obvious imperfections, but it's been repainted. Black dials don't age this well. Maybe someone who knows what the Seamaster signature looks like can point something out.

·A good first test is to establish if the printed markers are equidistant from the applied markers. In this case no, so one needs go no further. Not too bad a job on the refinishing of the dial, although the case has been over-polished in my opinion.

·The outer curve of the crystal often makes this difficult do gauge the distance between markers as it can appear distorted. I actually love the look of this watch. I don't know this particular model, but the hands and crown also appear to be original. It's nice when they include a dial picture outside of the case with a macro image, but many people don't know how or would rather not do this, and this is understandable.

I agree, but I still don't think this watch has not had any work on the dial. If it didn't, I expect that the seller would be asking for much more.

·Nice redial, but the first S and the M in Seamaster stand out as slightly off.
