    Hello,

    I´m Alex and I´m looking for a vintage Omega Seamaster
    I´m about to buy this one
    I did some research, but without interior/movement photos I still have some doubts about if it´s fake or not


    Can someone help with info? Thanks

    Well, at least you are asking before purchasing..
    But not doing the due diligence to get the pictures of the reference numbers from the caseback and/or movement..
    Also, what is the service history...
    So be careful out there..

    The seller as no oficial service history (but it´s working) he received the watch and want to sell it

    He try to open it, but don´t want to force/break it, so no interior photos...
    I can try do open it by myself with some watch case opener if I want.
    But first I need to decide if it's worth to go there (about 150km) just with this photos... real/fake model? any idea?

    Thanks

    If the price is ok, looks like it has some potential. Original, nice case and dial with patina. Will need a service and a new crown. I would spend 150 euro on such a piece. Certainly not more than 200 euros.
    Hope it helps.
    The rest is up to you.

    It's quite hard to tell from these photos. Could use better pictures of the Omega writing etc on the dial.

    Mvt will probably be a 550 caliber.
