·Is that a French Savoy movement from the late 60s?

·AS1130 it is a nice, and can be very accurate, movement hehe. That one looks in nice shape.
AS parts are still fairly cheap and available. I have sort of grown to like them as practice watches. They however do not belong in Omega cases or with random graffiti on them.

·Here are some tips to help you avoid purchasing a fake vintage Omega.
Here's a classic fake Seamaster:
First, you won't find "antimagnetic" or a jewel count on the dial of any Seamaster. Second, that's one crappy movement. Omega copper plated their movements since the word Seamaster has been used on the dial. Third, Omega never put the hallmarks (like the Ω WATCH Co inside the triangle or the 18K 0.750) you see on this watch's caseback on the outside - they were always on the inside.
Thread it came from: http://omegaforums.net/threads/seamaster-elecromagnetic.6234/
Here's another example in a different case:
The thread it came from:
http://omegaforums.net/threads/seamaster-not-found.6152/
Bottom line: ASK BEFORE YOU BUY! Part of the reason this forum exists is to help less experienced people buy decent vintage watches without getting ripped off. We don't even charge! It's a FREE service!
What do you think about this ?

·Just received an offer to buy this piece of... you call it. I'm just starting with Omegas but thanks to the Omega Forums and this thread in particular, I noticed something's wrong here. But honestly, my first concern was this uneven Ω symbol that is literally touching 12pm stick.
Also, haven't seen "Antimagnetic" anywhere. Where does it come from and are there models that write it on the dial?
