Hi,
I found this beautiful watch in the local vintage store. Could anyone help me to verify the authenticity of it?
It might be my first omega 馃榾

Yup genuine Cosmic with one of the nicer dial designs and a nice bracelet.

How much are they asking?

I鈥檇 say a private sale price with box and bracelet, unserviced, would be closer to 拢500, possibly more. UK prices are slightly higher due to (bloody) Brexit, but assuming you鈥檙e in the US, that鈥檚 a good price and if you like the watch I鈥檇 buy it.

Is it working and have you checked the dial under a loupe for damage? Obviously any damage to the dial will have a negative impact on value.

I think only the bracelet can make 200 USD. Do not hesitate..if the watch is in good working condition it is a good price for this model. I have a similar one not in so good condition and not with stainless steel bracelet and I paid 300 Euro.

Man I'd be jumping on it at that price- a real bargain!
Hope that shopkeeper doesn't see this thread!
