·Hi all, hoping the collective wisdom of the forum can help with this one. I am looking at this 166.024. I am told that it is an original that has been fully refurbished by a certified Omega watchmaker (new dial, hand, service bracelet, etc.). The listing price is close to U.S. $10k, which seems high …but not a deal killer if it is indeed original. My concern, though is that it could be a watchco (or parts build with a donor movement). Seller is representing it as original but does not know history of the watch. if this is a watchco or parts build, then the price is a total dealbreaker. Any advice on this one? Seller provides a certificate of authenticity, but not really sure what that means since watchco could be considered “authentic” too. I don’t have pics of the movement but am told it is caliber 565 that has been serviced.
