    Hi folks,

    just found this on eBay:
    https://www.ebay.de/itm/133506980234Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    Is this a special version of Ranchero?
    Cannot found Omega logo on glass!?
    Is there any replacement crystal available for this particular watch? How about the scratches on crystal? Possible to polish them?

    Would be great to receive any feedback if this is an all original watch and if anybody can help me with my questions.

    Best regards ️,
    Detsen

    let't just list the issues i see

    - wrong crown
    - huge problem wrong hands
    - small second is normally white on black dial and black(blank metal) on the white dial version
    - take a look at the UV light shot ... hands seem to be radium , the dial looks more like tritium, same on the regular daylight shots. i would request a geiger reading
    - case is so so

    Those informations are bringing me forward. Thank you so much for your detailed expertise.
    What could be a good amount for that? Any ideas?

    Tbh i think you should skip. Look for a regular one in nice and correct condition. Sourcing the correct hands can take ages. And the most probably relumed dial kills it in the end ... patience padawan :)

    Early on I was besotted with this watch until I read deeply here. Then the combination of legitimacy and price minefields kept me away.
