    Answer from seller
    I did list it as more than likely aftermarket and only suitable for a project so I can't see anyone paying hundreds for it believing it to be genuine. So you reckon £25 is too much to ask then?

    Looks like a prop from a very low budget film

    OMAGE is back !!

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seamaster-300-Omage-dial/303849196942Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    Relisted due to falling foul of some rule. Anyway, apologies to watchers and the previous bidder on behalf of the self appointed 'Guardians of the Horological Galaxy' exercising their right to be petty. If you were watching the previous auction you'll know what this is. It's a dial in the style of the Seamaster 300 which funnily enough I bought here, on ebay, a few years ago. It was fitted to a 166 .073 'deep blue' and as I said in my previous listing looked really nice,but wasn't the right dial for that particular watch so I replaced it for the correct one. It's been sat in a drawer ever since. Now the grown ups in the room should know I'm not trying to deceive anyone into believing this is anything other than it is. But it is a nice quality glossy enamel vintage style dial with luminous batons and would look good in a project for somebody, so here it is. No logos displayed, no manufacturers marks on the blank, and the feet have been removed so it'll need sticky pads.Think that covers it . Thanks .

    Totally agree with you, but please be careful when stating that around here, or you might well be excommunicated by the inquisitors, as I was on this thread… https://omegaforums.net/threads/screams-franken.125396/

    Just saw this great analogy re buying watches from eBay (from a Bark & Jack YouTube video):

    “It’s like finding a wife in a brothel, lots of pretty faces but you don’t know what kind of diseases they have”

    Now up to $3500 with an hour left. Am I missing something? These are as fake as they come, right?

    Very fake. That Goodwill location even states they have sophisticated gold testing instruments. "Jewelry is tested using the Niton DXL Precious Metal Analyzer and the Gemoro Testerossa"
    I've sent them a couple of messages warning them that they are dangerously exposed. They have been notified that they are selling a counterfeit and proceeding with the auction with this knowledge.
    It's going to be a mess. All in the name of "Goodwill" (my butt)

    Hopefully Goodwill will pull it down. Just received this:

    "Thank you for reaching out to us. Upon further inspection, this item was found to not be authentic, and we are looking into the matter further. Take care, Kristen"

    Just got the same message. They ended up selling last night for $5000, so hopefully we saved someone a LOT of heartache!
