Asking $2,400 PP'd and shipped FedEx insured CONUS. No trades. Reasonable offers considered.
Picked up this watch in a trade a few weeks ago. Incredibly lovely dial and alpha hands. Everything looks original (dial, all hands, pushers, crown, caseback) except the movement number (11.4xx.xxx) is too earlier for this ref (CK2947). My assumption is that this is a marriage watch and it is priced accordingly considering prime examples of this watch have been going for 3500-4000. Keeps reasonable time (+20ish) with about a 45 hour power reserve. Chrono runs 100% and resets perfectly to zero. Main hands have a slight misalignment by about 8 minutes (ie the minute hand gets to noon about 8 minutes before the hour hand). This is shown clearly in the photos. Original case back shows "WATERPROOF" and "SEAMASTER" through it is faint. Watch head only.
Full transparency, I made a thread here to help understand the date difference between the CK and movement.
Correct movement for CK2947 Seamaster chrono
Movement is a 27 CHRO C12 which is a c321 but with a different plating.
From chronomaddox - Speedmaster Moonwatch Movements: Background Information...
The c.321 is based on a design development project titled "27 CHRO C12" (27 mm diameter, chronograph, with extra 12-hour register) took place in the 1940's by Albert Piguet and Jaques Reymond as a joint development project between Omega and Lemania. Launched in 1942, the 27 CHRO C12 later became known as theLemania 2310, or Omega c.321).
It was used not only in the Omega Speedmaster from 1957 through middle 1965 but also the renamed and re-cased Omega Speedmaster Professional from middle 1965 through middle October 1968, but also in DeVille, Seamaster and non-model marked chronographs during this era. It also was used in Omega non-model marked Chronographs earlier in the 1950's under the 27 CHRO C12 calibre name...

·There is only one way to prove that it is your watch now in your possession. Show us a picture of it with the time set to say: 3:30.
By the way, I think your attitude will keep any of the experts from chiming in further.

··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...So when did you take your photos? As well as knowing the forum sales rules as a brand new member For which you claim no reason to know those rules. Then you claim you are not selling it and now you are claiming to be selling it.
I’d love to be proven wrong but your explanation seems off.

··Oooo subtitles!It is in essence a Franken so even if the OP does actually own the watch he may struggle to find any willing buyers on here anyhow where originality is valued so highly. A nice looking piece certainly but the fact that the movement didn't start out in that case would put many collectors off. If it is a scam, it was a poor choice of bait.
