Pictures didn’t load.

 

try to re upload the pics

 

It's preferred to upload the photos to Omega Forums rather than using a image hosting site, so that the images are kept around. There is an Add Photos function built in to do this.

 

I have no idea to uploading pictures on this forum, sorry
There i put imgur address of the watches

 

It looks something like this, next to the reply button. You have to upload the photos and then insert them into your message.

 

Ah its working
I clicked on Image above and its asking for url.
Thanks mate

 

Also, those photos were not great quality so you may want to take/obtain more clear photos in better lighting before making a decision (and before we can help much).

 

+1 for need better photos

 

It's a genuine Omega.
I'ts a heap of dog shit.

Where is it coming from?

 

Still waiting for the seller to reply

 

Its from Indonesia.
A lot of fake Omega at here
Its repainted as per he says

 

I understand that model is obsolete. The watch has had a lot of use, and likely needs parts. Not a good buy at any price in my opinion. Rough!

 

I’d swerve this one. Non-original dial, tired looking movement and the rotor bearing is knackered, hence the circular marks on the movement and case back. Going to cost more than it would be worth to get it into good order. There’s plenty better out there, keep searching.

 

Just got a more detailed photos.
Sorry cant get a more better quality photo either

 

Thank you for your advice mate
Its kinda hard to get a good Vintage Omega at here actually haha

 

Don't waste your time, forget this one and move on.

 

I don't think the watch is a fake but the dial has definitely been refinished at some point. I would definitely stay away from it. Especially as a first watch you want to make sure you have a good example. That will definitely launch your love for collecting and be a great first experience. That's my opinion.

 

Thank you for that kind of advice.
Yes, i am trying to moving on now and finding another gems for my first collection.
Appreciate it!
