Considering pulling the trigger on this watch and would love some of that OF insight. Says it’s a new omega crystal. Looks to be in pretty good shape? TIA.

It's definitely not a 166.022, looks more like a 166.001. To me, it looks good otherwise.

 

166.022 is a Cosmic reference. Best to ask the seller to confirm if this is correct.

 

Yeah I don’t know why he lists it as that, very odd. May just not know? Thanks all!

 

Yea probably a simple mistake or typo. looks like a nice watch.

 

Are there any movement photos, or service history? I like the outside but it would be good to know what’s under the hood.

 

Asked about movement but he said he doesn’t trust himself to open it. He’s got great feedback on reddit, though.

 

If you pull the trigger, factor in another $200-300 for service. And ask your watchmaker to send you some nice photos of the inside when done so you get the movement serial number (which will help give a rough production date). The model reference will be on the inside caseback, too.

 

Got caught up with work and missed out on it. Thanks for all the insight and feedback, all.
