    Good morning OF
    I picked this stunning 30T2 up about 1 year ago from a well know OF member. I wanted discreet but nothing flash and this certainly fits the bill! It is a very rare omega calibre 30T2 oversized, the case is 35mm excluding crown, with crown 38mm
    The watch is in stunning original condition. It’s extremely rare to find one of these now without dial having some work done on it.
    The movement is services and really clean and running strongly, the case is lovely and crisp, there is a mark on the top right lug but other than that it's excellent.
    Please also note the oversized subdial, which is the only one I have seen like this before.
    I am looking for a very reasonable £580 shipped free in the UK postage at cost outside the UK.
    Photos are from the original seller I hope he doesn’t mind. selling head only
    Payment via BT or PP gift .
    never over never under always on the level
    Thanks Steve

    Sorry to have to give you the bad news - but work has been done to it. It's a redial.

    Still a nice watch - but it is a redial FYI.

    Can I ask how you think it's a redial ?
    Thanks

    The subdial is the most clear sign.

    1. The subdial waves are muted (sign that it has been painted over).
    2. The outer edge of the subdial is not sharply defined, but rather soft (sign that it has been painted over).
    3. The subdial printing is not consistent in shade and the font is a bit messy.
    4. The fifth hour indices encroaches onto the subdial. You might argue that it was that way originally, but you'd be wrong. And even if you could argue that, to remain consistent, the seventh indices should also encroach the subdial, which it doesn't.

    There are clues on the rest of the dial - but hopefully this is enough.
