Can I get critique on this...http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-VINTAGE-FULL-SIZE-GENTS-OMEGA-SEAMASTER-WATCH-BLACK-DIAL-NEWLY-SERVICED-/290764778640?pt=UK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item43b2ee6c90

Thanks for your critique I know...it's been completely re-done. Is that all bad? If it is please don't ban me from the forum

 

I admit I have no idea, but the hands look very long to me .....

 

Ick. I hate when the SWISS MADE is above the minute second track when it's not supposed to be.

Beat me to the punchline, eh?

 

Nice hat

 

Good to know the Long Hands Squad is diligently seeking offenders/re-doers of the way Omega originally intended. Keep up the good work. I'll try my best to do mine

 

How about this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Rar...990656716?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item1c2b9ae8ccPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

Watch history seems well documented. Opinions of condition & price range encouraged & welcomed.

Couldn't help myself, it just caught my attention

 

Think this was discussed here..

Thanks, I missed reading that thread.

 

It's good to be with this forum. My untrained eye did not fall prey to the glitz & glitter of the unscrupulous or unaware ebay seller.

 

Can I get opinion on this?

One thing I did notice is the double T. Where's the lume on the dial?

Thanks

 

That whole watch is suspect. Not sure if dauphine hands were supposed to come on them although that might not be out of the question. Secondly, the movement has 2 different shades of copper plating. The least of what I saw quickly is the wrong crown - it should be serrated. I'd vote pass on the grounds of frankeness.

 

Thank you! I knew there was something amiss with that dial but didn't study it long enough to spot that.

 

Thanks..I'm of course gonna pass.

 

No need indeed, thanks for the look.

 

For my lesson today, please elaborate on "Chronometre". Inquiring minds, need and want to know...

 

That watch should have "CHRONOMETER". Somebody else can give you more detail, but in general the RE versions were certain earlier models from the 50's.

 

Ok, just wanted clarification. I have seen both spellings & didn't know the reason . Thanks.
