Omega Legends

Seeing anyone can offer an opinion on this watch
Serial number is correct for the vintage

Interesting first post. Care to elaborate?

Yes off course. I have been looking at this watch to buy as I'm interested in Military pieces
There is no paperwork with it so it's buyer beware.
Since I haven't seen one of these navy issue watches in the flesh I can only go on research so I was hoping someone here may be able to offer an opinion.
Hard with photos I know but any opinions appreciated.

Are you happy with the engraving on the back?

The stamping looks how it should with examples that have been Omega verified.

There is variation in them, meaning, some Hippocampus have been shaved and stamped. The majority seemed to have been stamped over the Hippocampus. Both versions show up on verified watches

It's the fact that there are good copies is what I'm trying to wade through.

Any advice appreciated 🙂
