Hey all! I'm considering to buy this watch, it's being offered at 900USD. I don't know the reference and I couldn't take a picture of the insides. The bracelet is not original. What do you think?

I think you should browse in the for sale section of this forum and find a better watch for less money.

Look like a gold-filled case, which would mean that the asking price is silly. You can get a nice stainless or gold-capped Seamaster for that price.

What do you mean with "silly"? Non native here, but I suppose that you mean too much? lol

You can find a nice example of that reference for around half that.

Probably not even gold-filled, I think these were 80-micron gold plated.

+1 overpriced even if the leather band and buckle are original Omega.
