    SOLD

    For sale here is a very nice manual Omega Seamaster from 1960.

    The case is in very good, unpolished, condition. Measures 35 mm excl the crown, which is a generic replacement. Suits this watch fine, though. Easy to wind and to set time with.

    Flawless dial, very nice condition. Perfect as fas as I can judge. Factory original, no redial.

    Very nice movement, looks clean and runs strong and keeps good time. Not recently serviced as far as I know, though.

    I´m thinking USD 550 for this fine starter Omega for everyday use. Shipping included, registered mail, fully insured with the Swedish post.

    Is yours going up for sale, too, Adam? If so, DIBS!

    Figures, I go out for a bike ride, and while I'm gone, this one gets posted up and sold, all in a flash!

    Anyway, congrats to both of you. I'm glad it stayed within the 'brotherhood'!

    Always love seeing how the high quality pieces go in under an hour, how long did it take for someone to take it?

    This one lasted like 10 minutes. I guess the buyer knew what he was looking for, and saw my listing immediately when posted. So all about lucky timing this time

    I know enough not to hesitate when I want something here that is nice!

    This will be a birthday present for my wife actually...and if she doesn't like it, I would wear it as well for some occasions. But I think she will like this one. :)

    Thanks again mate.

    Cheers, Al
