    Less than I would have expected given what 105.003's have been fetching lately.

    Any condition issues affecting this example?

    Looks nice and looks like a bargain but the lack of a clear return policy gives one some pause. At the price a good risk:benefit ratio.

    I think this watch had a very good dial and handset.

    And as others said, a bargain compared to the prices of 003's lately.

    I was that lucky winner, guys. It is no $5.99 purchase but I am indeed a happy camper. I just got it yesterday, will post some pics soon.

    One of the best looking 2998 that sold in like the last 6 months. Indeed, not a $5.99 purchase, but not a bad one either! IMHO, worth well the price.

    Congrats!

    Your strap tones in well with the aged lume. Nice.

    Thank you, everyone! I am thinking the chrono second hand is original to the watch, what does everyone think?

    Could well be, that style was supposed to finish at 2998-5 but it is an Omega and like everything else I expect some transitional carry over. It matches the others in patina perfectly.:)
