My first Omega Seamaster 2541.8, could someone please give me some advice on this one?

    On Ebay, I found this piece. It is within my limited budget ($2000 AUD). I noted the lume variation between the hands and dial, I've read this can be normal? otherwise I was inclined to pull the trigger, thoughts and advice taken with utmost appreciation.
    Cheers,

    Early Bond SMP quartz. Tritium lume often does that, most before 1997 look like that. Ok price at £1100 but not cheap cheap. Can’t tell from that pic but the insert could be a non Omega replacement. Not certain either way.

    Hi Padders, thanks very much for the prompt reply. So, based on the photos you think it looks otherwise ok?
    Cheers.

    Looks pretty good, I would wait for a second opinion on the insert but the dial and hands are normal.

    The watch looks nice but the price seems a bit high for the quartz model. Do a search on the watch forums before pulling the trigger
