·Hello all,
I've been dreaming of a vintage Seamaster to wear everyday for a very long time. I can now afford my favorite 60's model but I am an absolute beginner in the watchmaking world, which seems very prone to scam and overpricing. I know nothing about what to check on a vintage watch nor what servicing an antique means regarding how many years of life that kind of watch has left.
I spotted this one from a seemingly trustable seller on the bay:
https://www.ebay.fr/itm/143316345140?ul_noapp=true
£695
It's my favorite model and the replacement strap looks great to me so it's overall pretty attractive. The price seems a little high to me regarding the fact that the watch has a lot of scraches and some rusting inside the case but does the model justify it?
What are you connoisseurs' opinions about this watch?
Thank you for your help!
