    After suffering a devastating blow to a last second bidder, I've picked myself up and have continued search efforts for my first Omega watch.

    These are the candidates at the moment - all auctions expire by end-of-day.

    Edit: Does the Omega symbol seem a little too wide/open at the base?

    What they all have in common is that they're all powered by automatic movements. I've passed on a few watches with 6XX as I'm trying to find a watch that really resonates with my
    fascination for the automatic nature of these masterpieces. Please provide any feedback regarding these watches and their respective movements.

    Thank you.

    I Definitely wouldn't touch the first one. The movement looks pretty bad...

    What in particular jumps out at you?

    The description states that it has been serviced, yet there is still a lot of dirt in the movement. Moreover, the different colours of the movement parts suggest that the movement has been cobbled together.

    Can you post pictures rather than links.

    I don't like any of them. Various little details, mostly to do with the movts., just put me off.
