I'm still learning !

Does tis look like a redial, the movement is very clean and the crystal appears original.
Seller says its a 1963 watch but I have read that omega only started using the T on the dials in 1964.

As usual I require the help of those much more experienced.

Thanks
Tim

 

Serial number on movement suggests 1964, but that dial looks too good ?

 

Might be a service dial but I bet a donut it's not refnished.

 

Thanks SkunkPrince, I really like this but dont want to buy a lemon. what would be a fair price?

 

I don’t think this seller will be in any rush to accept offers around the starting price. If it was me I would bide my time and see how it goes.
Personally I don’t think it’s worth a great deal more than where it is now.

 

This takes me back...

Don’t want to click? Basically I asked about a very similar watch back in the dark ages of 2014. A reply of note came from @gatorcpa who said:

“Yeah, I'll go with original also. It's very hard to reproduce that type of textured dial at a reasonable cost.”

Of course each watch is different but still. Also, mine doesn’t have the “T”s.

 

A "fair price"is whatever you're willing to pay. Only you know that.

This site is full of collectors who will wait a decade for a bargain. If you like it and you'll wear it every day, and you're willing to put aside $100 a year for its next service, then have at it, whatever you're comfortable with.

 

Very nice watch with an original dial.
If it was me I'd just snag it and eat cat food for the next three months.

 

Ref 125.007. I've seen grey florentine dials before, but not white until now.

The speck to the left of the 5 o'clock marker is interesting.

 

Nice watch - what is the asking price?

 

I think it's a piece of lint.

 

I'm missing a sub second from my collection. It's it's a top requirement for my next purchase.

 

I think when you see a sea of crap it’s hard to tell the good ones- this is one of them. I have a couple that look like this- and it’s what we all want.
We can all guess at what it’s “worth” but 60’s Seamaster’s in this shape are not as common as many would have you think- some kind of “patina” (aka damage) is the norm. I would put a premium of 20-30% over average sales prices just for the dial condition and if you really want it- do another 10%. I have gotten some great deals during my collecting, but the best of the best I have paid more than I thought was sane and never regretted it.

 

Thanks for all the replies, very much appreciated.

Ill let you know if I manage to make a deal with the seller, fingers crossed.

 

its on ebay, i'm in dialogue with the seller so hopefully can work out a deal that we are both happy with.

 

Done, its mine

 

Congrats - I think it looks a nice watch and it’s clear that it will bring you pleasure. I think it would look even better on a smarter leather strap, but that’s your call. Wear in good health!

 

won´t that upset the cat?

 

Gorgeous watch! I’m glad you got it. Congratulations!

 

Have a watchmaker look at the movement to see if it needs anything and enjoy that lovely watch
