Hello forum members,

I could use your help with the Omega seamaster 120 I just bought, ref. 566.00007.
I have my doubts about the bezel, which doesn't look genuine to me. Also I just want to know your guys opinion about this watch. Does it look original? Many thanks.

Tijl.

Looks good to me. It's the ladies version so a bit small.

Aside from the different color bezel (they came in several colors), looks almost exactly like mine. I think this one has seen a light polish. This version is 31mm.

Movement seems a bit grubby too. Could probably use a service.

Not aware of any counterfeit parts for this reference or any of the ladies 120s.

Yours has an original bracelet which is a plus.

Service advisable as noted above.

Thank you for the help guys, big relief. I’ve paid 870€ for it, a bit on the high side I think. But good to know that it is original.

The proportions of these women's model dive watches always makes me think of a big-crown submariner.

But you do realise that it is the ladies version right? These are very small indeed at around 31mm diameter.

For the ladies model, that's not a bad price. I usually see them go for around $1k.
