Hello everyone and thank you for accepting me in the group
I dont know much about watches in general, I just stumbled upon this old Omega Seamaster thats for sale
After reading online I learned that there are fake Omega watches so I need help to determine if the watch that I want to buy is real or fake
Im posting the images provided by the seller
P.s.
I noticed that there is no " swiss made" markings in the bottom, something I have seen on every Omega Seamaster
Thank you for your help

Better photos would help, but I'm not seeing any obvious problems at first glance except for the broken sweep hand. Given the condition of the rotor, you will want to factor in the cost of a service.

The Swiss Made appears to be blocked by the crystal. You can see some letters in the attached photo.

Reference number is 14704, discussed in the following thread:

Thank you all for the replies
Im attaching more images, but still struggle to see the swiss made letters
Just concerned about that
The asking price is 600 EUR, might go a little lower than that.
What you think is it worth it?

Keep an eye on KP listings. You can find a nicer example in the 400-500€ range. Send me a message if you want the contact info for a good watchmaker in Bg.
