Hey guys this is my first post here (hopefully first of many) as I've been collecting new watches for a while but finally want to get into vintage watches.

From my limited knowledge, I'm pretty sure this isn't a total fake, but perhaps a franken watch? Any ideas on how original this one is?

Much appreciated!

Jonny

Hi All,

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on this watch but want to know if it's fake.
I know it's had some work but i can over look it if it's not a fake.

What do you think?

Quite genuine. Seamaster Automatic. Possibly a caliber 751 and maybe from the mid 1980s.

The Omega secrets are inscribed on the inside of the caseback, which has to be removed by appropriately skilled/equiped persons.

751 came with 24 jewels

Hi Jack - which post is that for? Mine?
The post he quoted before his comment i imagine.
Now maybe read the title of this thread- more specifically the last 3 words

Guararc's post, one with the picture of the rounded square seamaster, gold plate but the dial says 25 jewels

Yes, we know that. What's the point of your post?

(besides the redial thing).

Guararc's post, one page back, the square gold plated

either a fake or a misspelt dial

Yep, I get it, but until we see the guts of that watch we'll never know if it's genuine or a fake, but I still vote genuine.

Omega did some dumb shit in the 70's and 80s.
