    A photo of the dial might be a good addition to the set.

    Appears to be real, however I have not seen that specific order of the markings inside the caseback. Perhaps another more knowledgable Speedmaster expert will be able to confirm.

    Oh my...

    Conservative value starts at about $4500. Could be more depending on better pictures of dial and condition of case back.

    Looks like the hands need some restoration though.

    Go play the lottery if you have one in Sweden. Seriously, you may be touched by an Angel.

    So question number 2. Is it worth repair it and then sell it. Or sell it as it is? I just bought it cuz I like Omegas. But I cant wear it if it cost like that? And I dont go to fancy partys that often. Its working but the glas is a bit scratchy. Not much. Just a clean up and sell? Thank you for your answers by the way :)

    Sorry, there ain't no way this watch was bought in a earthly Flea Market for $10.

    Just a subterfuge to try and sell it.

    Need some better pictures, and someone a little more versed in pricing on these.

    1)I am not sure what fixing or sourcing correct vintage hands for this will run, and how this will affect the watch.

    2)Need better pictures of the dial for valuation, high res in good light

    3)The "glass" is not an issue and easily polished or replaced.

    4) high resolution pictures of the case, to see polishing and how sharp those edges are. Although they look really good in the pictures provided.

    5)I would not run it as it most likely needs a service.

    So to break it down, too really answer your question you need better pictures of the case edges and dial for a valuation, and costs based against restoration costs for the best thing to do with it.

    Look over your shoulder.

    This forums has Swedish members.
    There are quality Swedish watch auction houses and dealers.
    Swedes know a thing or two about quality watches.
    And there is no way that a flea market seller wouldn't take 5 minutes time to check this watch out on the Internet to know, as you already knew before you came here, that the watch is worth $1,000s.
