    While I would like a better picture of the dial, it looks ok and in nice shape. Seller has a good track record from my dealings with him in the past. If with the box and once the dial condition/originality has been verified with better photos, it is worth upward of $3k. While ref. 2499 is smaller than ref. 2500 it is actually harder to find in nice shape.

    2499 had different dial styles but as I mentioned I would want a clear high resolution photo of the dial - seller represents it as original but:

    "doveryai no proveryai" (trust, but verify)

    That's ok too - either leave the dial alone or try having it cleaned by an expert. Having it redialled by omega (expensive) or by anyone else will diminish rather than enhance its value.
