    Yeah, definitely no Bueno. I recently visited a local vintage watch shop and every single Omega they had (5 or 6) was fake or had a poor redial.

    Interesting that the seller keeps all sales private so you can't see what else they have passed off.

    Fake&franken specialist xtime99 (72Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network ) from South California is back with a fake admiralty red ancoretta that was never produced by Omega!!
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/274087097342Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    he sold similar ones with blue dial in the past

    Bezel is fake
    Case, caseback, crown are fake (not even similar to real one)
    Hands are fake
    DIAL DOESN'T EVEN EXIST FOR REAL: the automatic no date "ancoretta" does not exist (would be the 165.054), it does exist as automatic+date 166.054 with 565 caliber or manual+nodate 135.042 with 601 caliber (all serial range is 29M to 30M 1970-1971)

    That watch is automatic NO date 550 caliber 18M (1961) with date 166.054 case reference... a model never produced by Omega

    I was looking for a pretty basic 60's steel case, and came across these from the same seller...would yall say theyre legit? Im not looking for the greatest example, but i am looking for original dial/crown, unpolished case...and most importantly an actual legit Omega!

    This one's 'OMEGA' engraving on the movement seems worn off, and idk if the case is unpolished with that brushing. What do you think?

    The seller (large available stock from Japan) has a bunch that are more or less similar, but each probably have their own slight concerns..
    This one doesnt have a signed crown

    ...I thought the "Post them here" meant post what youre looking at so you dont fall for them!
    And that "not for questions" meant not for general questions.
    My bad! Sorry about that!
