What do you think? Any thoughts would be really appreciated.

 

It is not an automatic. And if the seller doesn't know this I really doubt they really know anything about the watch

And forgot the lume dot at 6o'clock.
I'm sure others will notice more.

 

Look at the colour of the date wheel. I'm fairly certain it should be the same colour as the dial.

 

You can do better than this.

 

Thanks for the replies guys. I'll look at other vintage Omegas.

 

This is a manual wind wrist watch, surprising someone overlooked that. Condition is king, and this dial isn't in the best shape. Keep it as an option and search through the threads on OF to get a better idea of what the perfect catch is! Enjoy learning the piece inside and out before buying, it will make you appreciate your new acquisition that much more.

Best of luck,

Thomas
