I'm looking to buy my very first Omega watch. I was wondering what you guys thought about this watch, is it a good purchase? Thanks everyone http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=6659290&rid=0#msg_6659290
Looks like a 165.0026. The pictures are out of focus, so I can't tell if it was polished, but there are dings along the edges that are clearly visible. The crown seems to be a service replacement and not the correct one for this case. Personally, I don't like GP watches and I don't like the combination with the black dial. So for me the answer to your question is no.
It's not in terrible shape and the caseback engraving is deep which says it hasn't been too polished. Joe is correct that the crown is a replacement but that's not a huge issue, and I think the correct crown is still available. I happen to like that color combo so it's a matter of taste. The seller's asking price isn't terrible and he is open to reasonable offers. If you could get it around $350 you'd be doing okay I guess. It's not a popular model and there were a lot of service replacement dials floating around.
