Hi OF! Am seeking advice in terms of the authenticity. Hands, markers, crown, and serial 16866558 serial number on the 267 movement seem to check out from what I understand. I can't tell from the pictures if the crystal retains the logo in the center. I have been around Omega forums for a little bit, but I would be very thankful for the input from many of the more knowledgeable members here. Thank you in advance!
Dial and hands appear correct. Crown is not. Regulation is cranked up and the screws are a bit chewed. Movement dirty but in range. Caliber is correct.
Thank you! Definitely needs a service and someone really did a poor job with the screws the last time. I imagine correct crowns for these are quite hard to find?
Ah yea thats where I was looking. I emailed him and he just replied. His english is almost non-existent and he doesn't seem to know much.... I am going to stay away. Some other stuff he has posted has looked quite suspicious. Thank you are pointing that at RJ.
It originally came up on WatchRecon and his price seemed quite good for an original...to good to be true!
I contacted the seller about a Speedmaster Mk II that was very well priced. I wasn't comfortable with his response so I haven't taken it further. Be cautious.
Be careful, when I was in contact with the seller, he had a different name. I don't like name-changing guys selling nice watches at too low prices. Price also appears very volatile. Poor Paypal who might need to pay in the end.
