·Hello all at the Omega forums - first post so nice to meet you all.
I love Omegas, specifically those from pre-1970 (although I'd love one of the Bond modern seamaster 300m professional if they weren't so large - 42mm seems a bit bulky for me).
Can someone please help with an authenticity check on the dial for the above Omega Seamster 600 ref 135.011? It's a cal. 601 so based on that along with the 'seamaster 600' print I think it dates to the 1964-66 period.
Context is I got it on ebay for an Ok-ish price - the crystal is very scratched and the bracelet is bullshit and will be replaced with leather strap, crown also doesn't look original so will replace that, needs a good clean and service too.
Looking for some expert guidance on whether the dial seems legit - I know Omega did a million diff dial variations of this model and the above colourway was one of them, Not easy to see past the scratched crystal but the typography all seems sharp and well printed, and I wanted to check with some experts if they thought it is original, or a reprint.
The one concern I'd had was the 'swiss made' at 6 o clock, ive seen that on other dial colour variations, but when i've seen this particular dial before its always had the 'T swiss made T' for the lume.
Nice to meet you all,
Regards,
Will
