    Genuine and if it was polished, it was a very light one.

    I love how they labeled it, "rare." I agree; it's rare to see a watch in such poor condition listed with so high a price.

    Good day folks, just wanted to get your opinion on this omega planet ocean ref # 2201.50, I’m fairly certain it is a good one but would love the expert opinion.

    Would love a pair of expert eyes on this full set 2504.52 Railmaster.
    I’ve done all the investigation I can and there’s really nothing that I can see being off here, just my own uneasiness of buying from a private seller (with Escrow though). But even movement looks legit to my eyes, and as far as I can see the serial is same on the certificate, movement and lug... but I still want to be as sure as I can :)

    Yes, got it from Chrono24 but haven’t received it yet, hence the watermark on some images!

    What do you think?

    Edit - Purchase didn’t go through, cancelled it :)

    Can someone check this watch to see if I bought a real or fake? I was initially thinking real but the back makes me question it.

    Thanks

    Michelle

    There is no busting with this one... The guy admitted it is a fake (not that he needed to as it's pretty obvious) and even bragged about his faux aging technique. I wonder what grit sandpaper he used... (before & after)

    I guess this is the opposite of "polishing a turd" (except for the turd part.)

    Dear friends, I am new to omega watches and watches in general and so also new to this forum. I just bought 2 omega De Ville vintage quartz and would love your opinion about them: are they fake or real. The first one with the black band is a omega 1330. The second one is an omega 1365. On the outside of the bottom plate the black band one has no markings at all. The brown band one has only 1365 stamped on it. I paid 180 euros(205usd), is that a good price, if real? Thx in advance guys and dolls
