    Just bought this one for daily wear for under $100. It has a few scar,s but with a little tlc it could be a nice one. It has the cal.613 inside. Foto,,s from the seller attached. I think I,ve done well.

    Yep, you certainly didn't pay too much. The 613 is a robust movement, and with a polishing if the crystal and case cleaning I'm sure it will come up nicely.

    Cheers

    The caseback has the seahorse logo. Is this correct? Never seen this combination before.

    Nicely done, sympathetic restoration is all it really needs, and I think it will look nice. Looking forward to see it in all its glory :)

    I don't think the caseback is correct for the watch, as it says Seamaster, but it wouldn't bother to me.
    You got a very nice daily wearer at a very good price.
    Enjoy it.

    Excellent condition the one you have there.
    Would like to hear more about the history; when the seamaster cases hosted geneve dials.
    Were there also examples with Geneve/Seamaster toghether on the dial?

    It reflected the broader confusion that obviously permeated Omega's marketing department of the day.

    ;)

    Yes, see below:

    Do a Google search for Omega "Geneve Seamaster". There are several forum posts about them all over.

    Not rare, but also far from common.

    Gator,
    crickey, Omega certainly know how to do different versions of a single watch.

    Thanks, I like the black faced Genève with the Seamaster logo above it hopefully I will have a choice soon of the black dial I got with the watch and a white dial that I have obtained.
