Looks like a bad fake. For starters: the bezel looks like it has an aluminum insert (should be ceramic), the lume pip is hideous (very protuberant and extending beyond the triangle), wrong bracelet clasp, and HE valve is in the wrong position. And that’s just what can be seen with these poorly lit garbage photos.
Guy claims it was a gift he got a few months ago and he's letting go at a bargain price of 1500$!!! You save 5500$$ (cnd) lol
I also asked for the boxes and cards.... He unfortunately doesn't have them.
Hello guys,
I fell in love with 60's Omega Seamestar De ville I saw at a store. I googled it, and found 2 for sale in my country, both go for about 600 dollars (that's a considerable ammount here). I'm a watch noob (I'm trying to learn) and I don't know if its a scam. Here are the pictures. One has busted hands and a different color crown (first 9 fotos) the other is lacking the swiss made. Should I buy one of them? I'm sorry for the photo spam. Any help would be greatly apreciated.
Just realized this might not be the correct thread. Sorry
That's a lot of money for the watches pictured. What country are you in? They don't seem like very exciting choices.
I'm in Argentina. Are they really not worth it?
Definitely not worth it here in the USA. I have a better condition deville like those pictured and I would be happy with 1/3 of the price you are quoted for one of those you posted.
Would you be willing to sell it?

The generous offer from @janice&fred sounds the way to go. You time here has already paid off.
Do also keep an eye out for other finds in your country in the future. I have had several fine watches sourced in Argentina (Omega, Girard Perregaux, IWC) and know a couple of dealers who still travel there just to buy because of the wealth of local collectors who brought Swiss timepieces in.
Just checking. It shows as 21500vph so assume that’s pretty much proof its real as I don’t think any fakes fake that bit.
I have a bunch of el-cheapo package deals including that watch which I plan to list for my pals over on the military watch forum later this week and I will send you a PM when I do, and encourage you to join up there as well. I'll give you first shot at it 😀
