·Thanks everyone for this amazing thread, learned a lot.
Finally decided to dive in and buy a watch for myself. Settled on the 3513.33.00 date that an acquaintance is selling. Everything I've seen on this watch looks correct, however it doesn't have box or papers, so I'm a bit skeptical, I have no plans on selling it I'm just trying to get a good watch to daily, so not having a box is not a deal breaker. Just trying to make sure I'm not getting ripped off.
I can still back out of the deal if needs be, but I'm starting to fall for this watch.
I'm taking it to get checked out and serviced (if I end up buying it), but I trust your collective wisdom much more than the watch shops I have available near me

·No worries, thanks anyway. As far as I can tell everything is original. Unfortunately the watch clasp broke just as I was checking it with a watch technician. It looks grimy and rusted, but I didn't notice it before.
I truly believe it wasn't our fault since it was just during regular use. But, I must admit that when I got it it was OK, maybe a bit loose but in one piece. Can I, in good conscience, return it this way? Or is this the risk when you buy used watches and I have to accept it as is?
I think that as long as the seller didn't trick me and knowingly sell me something fake or modified I have to assume these things can happen, right?
Sorry for my rant...anyway...can any one point me in the direction of a used sliding clasp for a Speedmaster date bracelet???🤦

·What gave it away if I may ask?
Hope you're not the seller. If you are, get a job.

·The entire movement. Fake warranty card isn't doing it any favors, either.

Wow...not the seller.
I thought it looked good hence why I asked
I just wanted to know since I was interested, but not anymore.

And your post is completely useless for future researchers since you posted a link, not photos, and the linked photos have been deleted.

·Can anyone tell me if Omega ever produced a Rose Gold 1960 Bumper like this? It looks way too perfect to me, especially the dial...
