I contacted him via phone, he told me to be the son of the original owner and after some days of messages and calls we had a deal. " Yes, on the bracelet is marked 7912. On the end links 6, or maybe 9.. I don't know"..

I live near Milan. I took my first train to his location, Florence.
...
We met near the station Santa Maria in Florence, and had an appetizer.

He showed me the watch. My knowledge in vintage Seamaster was limited. I remember that the gasket of the caseback was sticked because he never opened it. Finally I opened it and after a check was everything ok. He told me: "if you need more certainty we can go to the Omega boutique here and ask about his originality". Ok, let's do it. After some minutes of walk we were inside the boutique and we gave the watch to the employee. I still remember his enchanted gaze when having in his hands the watch. He showed us the Seamaster 300 Master Co-axial on his wrist and referring to the 14755 told us: " wow! you have the original!". After that I had a lunch with the seller ( he offered it to me) and he showed me some spots in his beautiful city.
