Hi,

I’m about to buy my second Omega Vintage watch and I have found this Nice pice!
I think it’s from the 70’s and it’s looks fine in my eyes but I’m still new at this.
Is it original and no redialed? And what’s a fair price for it?

thanks for now!

Not a redial. But also the not the most sought after so take that into account when it comes to pricing. What's the price?

Oh really, why is that it’s not so “popular”?
The price is 500 euro.

This era of Omega is not as sought after compared to 60s for example. It's also gold plated and this can sometimes mean the plating is worn. Your example has some gouges on one of the lugs as well.

I have owned this reference before and personally find the minimalistic style of the dial quite appealing (but I'm from Scandinavia, and we sure like our minimalism). I agree, however, that it isn't the most sought after reference and a gold-plated case is the cheapest case material. On the other hand, the case seems to be in quite good condition. I would buy it at 350 euro max, provided it runs and keeps time. At 500, I would look for a gold-capped Seamaster if you want a gold watch.
