    Hello guys, first post here, so If i'll do something bad, I am really sorry about that.
    Im writing here, because I need your help and thoughts on this Omega Seamaster from 1963. Watch looks really nice, but I am not Omega specialist, If u could tell me something more about this watch, is it original and should I buy it. I'll post link to polish auction website, and images if u cant view it.

    Original link:

    Over-"Polished" (sorry -- couldn't resist :p ) and a redial. Unless it is very cheap, you should pass.

    Its not actually a Seamaster, its a Geneve who's dial has been improperly printed with Seamaster.

    PASS

    I actually like the general look of this one. However, at over $500, I think it is a bit expensive for what it is.

    However, I'm not sure if this is the original dial. By 1975, Omega was using several different colors for dials. But I don't know if dark blue was one of them.

    Please understand that most of us don't speak Polish, so we can't follow the terms and conditions. So unless it looks perfect, I cannot recommend a purchase.

    Hope this helps,
