Guys? What do you think of this 1498/840 bracelet for a Speedmaster? From an eBay seller in Italy who claims it's NOS. Looks legit to me, but auction ended multiple times without a buyer so I may be missing something. Asking price is EUR 500. Thanks so much!
Here’s mine for comparison: I can’t see any issues other than the incorrect refinish. The polished bits look brushed in your photos.
Thoughts on this dial? What throws me is that I don’t see the “circles” surrounding the 3 subdials in the indentions, they just look flat.
Looks fine. Likely the crystal in combination with a cellphone camera smoothing out details. When I owned a modern one, it looked the same. Is there anything specifically you are concerned with? It’s genuine.
Nothing in particular. Was just looking for confirmation of it being genuine and I don't have the experience to be able to look at pics & make a quick assessment.
The modern speedy doesn't have the concentric rings on the subdials, it's same matte finish as the rest of the dial. Watch pictured looks fine, does it come with original strap/bracelet?
I don't know the reference but have seen them on watches with the tritium markers, so up to 97 I guess. I'm sure there's someone more knowledgeable who can help
Here is a closeup of the modern dial directly from Omega’s website. Yes, they have concentric circles in the subdials.
Def nothing to see on mine, even at 20X magnification. It's a 311.30.42.30.01.005, so keen to hear if anyone can photo these on their model
Mine neither, and I have never seen a photo of a modern speedy where you can see those rings. That is, except the one on the website ...
