Although the bracelet is an aftermarket one (and should be replaced with an Omega one IMO), the watch is in amazing, pretty much collector, condition:
- Dot Over Ninety Bezel (you see how the 90 is located under the dot on the tachymètre bezel?) in excellent condition
- the hippocampus case back does not show any signs of scrapes or deep scratches that would have resulted from an unqualified watchmaker trying to open it with the wrong tools
- the handset seems all original
- the dial is in amazing condition with applied logo and with the added "Meister" stamp, which is the name of a Swiss authorized retailer which used to sell these watches and would print its name on the dial. As
@Dash1 said, adds a lot of collectibility
