    Sorry if I wasn’t specific enough in my previous post regarding the planet ocean. Could someone with more Omega experience than me please weigh in on if this is an authentic Omega? I’d be happy to post more pics if necessary. Thanks in advance,
    Dave.

    Hi,

    This watch belonged to my grandfather. I am struggling to authenticate it. What do you think? If authentic, it should be from the 60’s.

    Ps: The strap is fake.

    I can only see one photo. Since it's of just the box, I can't provide much help. I would suggest you offer more information if you want more.

    Hi efauser.
    Thanks for looking, but if you click on the small arrows in the add there are 5 pics to scroll through
    Could you take a look and let me know what you think.
    Thanks

    My bad, I was referring to a watch in another post. :oops:

    The photos on your link are to small and to dark to make any judgments.

    POST PHOTOS AND NOT LINKS.

    Except when he's not referring to the watch you're asking about.

    Gumtree seller is using a picture from Ebay. It looks genuine enough to me, but I'd wonder if the Gumtree seller actually has the watch...

    Thanks for putting that pic up me ewand (not sure how to insert pics)
    How can you tell the pic is off Ebay
    Do you think he just copied someone add ?
    Thanks

    ^^ The URL of the photo on Gumtree references an Ebay picture. I couldn't quickly find the actual auction that it corrresponded to, though.
