Don’t waste too much energy on someone getting duded. We get hundreds of them posting here a year.
You can PM the buyer and mention your concerns.
It is up to buyer and seller to both do due diligence.
I know it’s a pain to see this behaviour but even here we have seen some reputable sellers go rouge after several years of no issue. ( Usually the pseudo dealer that try’s to sell on a mistake he made but didn’t want to loose $$s on )
The above dial is original. Omega reference: 1360098.
r/watchexchange is a much more hands off sales forum and the mods (and membership) aren't nearly as expert as the ones here. So unless you're willing to publicly call out a listing as problematic and provide evidence, you're not going to be able to do much. Reddit in general is also a much more "mob rule" environment than here.
Basically, expecting any sales forum to provide protection to any unwary buyer is expecting far too much. Caveat emptor is the rule of the business.
Seller stated in ad that it was a 136.0099. Caseback also said that. This is a 136.0099 taken from the forum. Why are the 3'o clock marks different? And the space between swiss and made. I'm glad to be wrong in this case.
Can you provide a link to the original listing?
PM'ed it to you.
Thank you got the link. The dial is original and correct to the ref 136.0099. Most likely came from Ref 136.0098 than later changed to the one you were comparing thinking its redial.
I'm sorry but I did not quite get that.
So, the watch in the listing, which says it is a 136.0099. has a 136.0098 dial?
Or is it that both styles of Omega logo, 3'o clock mark, and space between swiss and made are correct?
Both dials are correct in a long production line. 2 versions of a dial maybe more but all under Geneve model.
Well, thank you for the input. It looks like I'm on my way to make some apologies and for a thread deletion.
