Hello, I am new in this forum and want to present you my new watch. I am very happy with it.

But I have one doubt about this watch and that is the OMEGA lettering on the dial. The space between E and G seems to big. What do you think about this and generally about the watch?

Omega Seamaster 600 135.011 - 1966 - 34,5 mm

Bought on Chrono24

Movement: manual winding
Caliber: 601
Power reserve: 48 hours
Number of jewels: 17
Frequency: 19800 A/h

Case dimensions
-Diameter: 34,5 mm
-Width including crown 36,5
-Lug to lug: 39,5
-Thickness: 8,8 mm
-Lugs width: 18 mm
-Material: steel
-Crystal: Plexiglass

Service information: Movement overhauled in October 2023 says the seller
Gear deviation personally tested: + 11 second per day (24 h)

Letter spacing is a bit off and the A's right leg is not straight. Also the Seamaster text should be sharper and a tad thinner. I'll say it is a well made redial, but I can't say that with 100% confidence.

I'd still consider it a fine watch that you can wear and enjoy. If I may ask, how much did you pay?

Thanks for your check, appreciate. Im sure that it‘not the original dial bit I think case and movement are in good shape. I paid € 795,00 ($ 845,00).

The dial has some slight bubbling but I don’t see anything wrong with the fonts.
