    Need some assistance on opinions of this. I couldn't find anything glaringly obviously incorrect about it. The seller has good reviews and the watch is going for a lot more on other sites. It looks too good to be true and the seller is located in Spain which from my understanding is a hotbed for fakes. I am considering pulling the trigger and this would be my first Omega. The price is right but I am nervous as can be. Any thoughts?

    Spain is a hotbed for fakes? ::confused2::

    The Ukraine and Vietnam are hotbeds for fakes. I know of no such distinction for Spain.

    Anyway, it's a pretty cool model but not so sought after. The 100x series from the 70's isn't making any collectors go gaga. There's a "Make Offer" option so if you want the watch try negotiating with the seller.

    Yea, thanks for the insight. I though I read that somewhere about Spain, wasn't trying to dis a whole country. I made an offer and just wanted to get a sanity check from the oracles. I saw the watch on other websites for a lot more and wasn't sure what to make of it.
