Omega Seamaster 212.30.36.61.01.001 - looks good?

Hey all,

I'm looking to add this piece to my collection (the 36mm variant; I figured this would fit my 6.75'' wrist better than the 41mm version). I've always wanted a Seamaster, and while the 90s blue "Bond" models are gorgeous, I've always liked the black dials a little bit better.

Plus, the upgraded ceramic bezel insert of these later models were a nice touch.

Yes, it's a quartz, but it will be my only quartz piece among my others automatics. It'll be a nice grab-and-go timepiece!

I'm looking to purchase it from a member over on Watchuseek. The only thing that makes me hesitate a bit is the damaged hole on the caseback that the seller mentioned to me- will this make it more difficult to open and replace the battery when needed?

Any other concerns from the photos that I should be aware of?

Thanks for the help OF!

I don't have any expertise but I gotta say that is one awesome watch!

Not in my opinion. The official tool to open these case backs has 5 pins that fit in all holes at the same time. The slightly stripped hole in the pics should not be a problem to properly open and close the case back.

Thank you, good to know!
