    Hello my Omega friends,

    What about this conny. Do you think, it is legit?

    And what about the information of the seller, that this model was only build 35.000 times?

    And again! Thank you a lot!!

    Maybe it is the picture quality as I'm on my phone but I don't remember ever seeing a dial with broken cross hair lines before

    I'm no expert but the minute markers look off to me. Not straight or uniform.

    I've also never seen broken cross hairs like that.

    I think it is a failure in taking picture. Perhaps the lens and the wagch crystal reflects

    Dial's are easier to picture clearly than the movt. usually. I think the photographer is trying to hide an awful redial.

    With pics like this, no one will tell.
    Provide with high res pics. If the seller is able to post on the i-net, he/she is also able to provide with decent pics.

    Nonsense. Push him/her harder.

    Funny thing is that the dial doesn't look too bad, although that is a wild card with these pics. Case is too polished for my taste.
    Wouldn't send my money to the seller though: provide with better pics, ask here on OF again to be sure and if not: run.

    The breaks in the lines are different in each picture and thus clearly down to the cheap camera phone he's using. I think the dial is probably original but agree the case is overpolished.

    Make sure to take a good magnifying glass with you, and if you haven't got one, buy one before you go! x10 magnification is good.

    Why buy before knowing for sure?

    Looks ok, depending on price.
    Is that hairs/fibre under the star?

    Case back is a bit beat up with some wear to the medallion, should be much crisper.

    Although the dial appears to be original it looks as though someone has attempted to "clean" it.

    As noted, it really comes down to price.
