    Replaced hands and bezel, posting the higher def pictures will help to assess the rest.

    Guys come on. Everyone is more than willing to help out but a little effort goes a long way.

    I think posting pictures - not just links, along with some initial thoughts (even if you know little about the reference in question) about the watch you're considering is a reasonable starting point, not just "I'm think of this watch (link), is it any good?"

    No photos of the movement? With a tell-tale sign of service changes, like the changed out hands, you'll want to see the movement too--it's a paradox to me that so many of the Speedies on C24 do not have photos of the movements--which always give me pause.....

    the watch has been for sale on chrino.dk for long - I always get suspicious when a seller is not completely honest in his description of the watch. In this case It should be clearly stated that the hands are new luminova. The crown is not the original as far as I can see on the pics, and the pushers might have been changed as well. The movement state and serial number is very important to check as well. I wonder why the seller does not provide an extract from the Omega archive to prove the originality of the watch! I would pass on this one.

    The photos in the ad don't show a lot and no movement shot or number is given.

    What does the last line mean "Dog er lynette af nyere dato". Google translate has it as "However, the lightning is of a recent date".

    Based to the pics, the chono hand is not perfectly aligned to the middle of the 12 o'clock minute mark - crono creep or just a bad hand alignment?

    Would you really want a 1965 Speedmaster without the Dot over 90 bezel? Isn’t this a relevant reason to have one? How do you even know it has a 321 caliber movement in without a photo?

    Ok
    The seller doesn’t reply on me asking for photos of the movement- let’s forget it.
    Thx for all your input.
    Happy new year

    Wait a bit, but from my experience, when a seller do not provide pic of the movement, there is something to hide ;)
