What you should want are better pictures.

I don't have any reason to doubt it based on those photos, but I also can't judge the condition very well. So I wouldn't bid aggressively.

I've actually had one with this dial, quite striking in person and I believe OPs is original.

So you have some pictures of the watch you once owned you can share?

It may be his that I remember seeing. I know it's potentially a lot to sift through, but I know there's a photo of another one somewhere in the bowels of the site.

I've been looking, as well as checking the 12 pages of the "textured dials" thread. No dice yet

At my work we have an old digital camera that stores the photos on 3.5" floppy disks. The image quality is about the same as the listing photos. I would not bid on it without better pictures, unless 300euro is play money to you.

I've seen a number of these and it looks fine. These come without minutes track, as do a number of other textured dial Seamasters of this style, probably in an effort to make the offerings a bit more dressy.

Nice example of an unusual but known Omega dial. I've seen other examples in the past.
Possibly original, or possibly redialed. Much better pictures are needed but I suspect original.

Always in the eye of the beholder of course, but I wouldn't be getting it for the aesthetics. What looks great on a gold dial Movado just doesn't work or belong with the Seamaster DNA! My 2c...

It appears some here know this dial, but I can't find any pictures of it elsewhere.

Since there have been no further half-honeycomb pictures, here is a funky silver half-linen dial version. It's similar to @nanjingcigaretes golden one posted above.

Looking at the "AUTOMATIC" and its position, I'm not quite sure what to think about it.

I notice that this one has got a minute track.





This watch is offered by a known ebay seller:

Where is the auction mate ?
Is it a trust worthy “company” ?

Perhaps @X350 XJR has a photo of the one he used to own.

It's been over ten years and two computers ago so don't hold your breath on me being able to find a photo, sorry.
