·Hello all !
My brother recently bought this vintage Omega De Ville Automatic for around $500, and he is now a bit worried that he may have made a mistake.
We know the watch is not in mint condition, and we understand that it has some age-related wear. 🕒
However, we would really appreciate your opinions on whether this was a fair purchase for the price.
From the photos, it appears to be an Omega De Ville Automatic, with a caliber 1002 movement. The watch has a textured silver dial, date window at 3 o’clock, and a cushion/TV-style case.
(He’s already seen the rust on the stem; he’s aware of it and doesn’t mind. )
I would be grateful if you could help with a few questions:
Does the watch look authentic to you?
Does the dial look original, or does it show signs of being refinished/redialed?
Are there any red flags or issues you notice from the photos?
Was $500 a reasonable price for this watch in its current condition?⌚
Any feedback, observations, or things to watch out for would be very helpful. My brother is not expecting a perfect watch, but he would like to know if the purchase was generally reasonable or if there are serious concerns. 👋🏼⌚
Thank you very much in advance for your time and expertise.
