·OMEGA SEAMASTER COSMIC AUTOMATIC 166045 565 DATE TWOTONE SILVER DIAL MEN'S WATCH
Asking $800
Interesting one, this. Seller remarks that all is original save for the strap. All his other watches save this one appear to be restored, and are stated as such. For clarification, I asked what was original, and what was refurbished or new, and what was new. He replied: "Only the leather band has been newly connected. All of them are original parts." I'd be grateful to get your expert opinion though.
Here's his notes:
Brand : Omega seamaster cosmic
Movement : Automatic winding / cal565 / Has been oiled and cleaned.
Case : S.Steel / clean condition
Band : Aftermarket new leather band / clean condition
Buckle: Aftermarket s.steel buckle / clean condition
Dial : Two tone silver dial / clean condition
Glass : Acrylic / clean condition
Case size : 34mm(Excluding crown)
Lug size : 19mm
Watch full-length : 24.5cm / 9.6inch
Work : keeping good time
Date Conversion / Crown Pull
Only watch / No box & paper / Not waterproof warranty
Authentic watch
It's hard to make out from the photo, but I think the serial no. dates it to 1969. The dial appears very (too?) clean. Unclear whether it's the original crystal either. There appears to be no lume on the dial, batons or hands, and consequently no 'T' accompanying 'Swiss Made'. I've seen similar Seamaster Cosmics with the same and similar design with lume - were they ever made without it? Thoughts very much appreciated.
