    If you like a bad redial with strange hands and a beaten up case : Go for it.
    Search for a real one and deduct 60% for this one here.

    Here are the two watches in question (it’s better to post pictures rather than links). The Seamaster is a redial with very incorrect hands that is terribly overpriced. The Geneve is overpriced. Do your research here on OF before you make a purchase you’ll regret.

    To save other viewers the need to look them up, the Seamaster is priced at €1350 and the Geneve at €1100.

    As has been said above, the Seamaster is a poor redial on an awful strap and, like the Geneve, is way overpriced!

    You should be able to find a nice Seamaster for under €750 and a similar Geneve for under €500?

    I would agree to swerve these two.

    eBay is fine - for price and range - but post the link and photos here (new thread each time) before you bid and buy.

    Also follow this thread https://omegaforums.net/threads/recommended-vintage-omega-watches-only-on-ebay-not-for-inquiries.on OF and also keep looking on the OF Private Sales thread

    Is it a message only for me?

    Anyone reading this thread. I thought @jomegas sounded a little discouraged in his last post :)

    thanks, appreciate your help.
    ive been thinking of settling for a modern entry level.... but my heart would break seeing the same watch on a bunch of people.
    ill wait a bit and give it another shot in that forum.
    thanks!

    I think you will do better buying from the Private Sales listings even if you have to pay customs duty.
