I would like to get a second opinion on the Authenticity since I know next to nothing about omega watches.

    While it is a genuine Omega, it's NOT a Seamaster. It's a Geneve with a poorly refinished dial.

    Cancel the sale if you can and ask questions first next time.

    Like stated before it's a Geneve, should look like that. Crown isn't the original one in your case.
