·Well I have a genuine serial number on my Heuer, which tells it's a Carrera alright. And this Carrera is all chrome and it's a Ed Heuer's.
I am just making points about the relativity of the word "original", which does not always fits into rigid frameworks.
You don't know how dials were made, how watches were assembled. You just know what you see.
Cheers.
That is wrong
Some know how and when and what was produced.
The companies had construction plans and weren’t a bunch of crazy watchmakers “ ohhh let’s take this hands and that caseback this will look funky
“

·@Vintagewtchzilla Why ruin a good story with facts?
It’s not even a good story ... if he would have found a skeleton of a soldier on the beach and still the watch on the wrist... THAT would be a story

·Just received the archive extract from Omega for my watch..This close the debate.
Everything, checks out.
I bought this watch in latin America, this explain the differences for the dials, I assume.
Sometimes, the more you learn, the more you realize you know nothing.
I loved my watch before, I love it even more now.

·The extract does not exclude the possibility that the dial was repainted or replaced at some point.

·@Sarandy - it's great that you love your Seamaster, but you seem to believe that the extract proves that the dial is original?
It does not.
And it isn't.

This close the debate for sure ... and the conclusion is you should stop buying vintage for your own safety ... as per se .. you know nothing about this topic ...
and please, stop spreading wrong information because other members could believe your bullshit are true.
Your movement is a sm300 movement , your dial is wrong ...debate closed ..for real

·This close the debate, for sure, but not in the way your insulting bullshit would like to go.
I own probably more vintage than you will ever own, including a military Breguet which has quadruple in value since I bought it as well as old Submariners and I am still learning about the watches I see and learn about the model I own and enrich my knowledge on them.
You bring nothing to the debate, except your insults.
So keep them for you, miserable moron.

Members here just try to educate you. You should listen to them even if its not always nice. Many members on here bought a many vintage watches and know what they are talking about. The 165.024 is a model that is often faked. So you should be extra curious with those. You should a least take in consideration that the dial has been swapped in time. You still have the possibility to find a nice original dial for your watch. This will probably not be cheep or easy.
It’s nice that your extract states that your movement is original to a seamaster 300. This makes your watch more valueable.
Cheers

·Trust me, I question my certainties all the time - it keeps my mind fresh to new ideas and concepts. However, we still come around to the same issue; that extract says nothing about the originality of the dial and yes, having a completely correct watch except for the dial is in fact perfectly common.
Sorry, what debate? You have brought nothing to the table that would even be considered a marginally good argument for your views - and how about posting some photos of your unique Heuer? 🙄
I know I shouldn't waste any effort on an obviously lost cause, so while I hope that @Sarandy goes away soon (inevitable) I also hope that he'll keep on enjoying his watch, wrong dial and all.

·I do not need to be educated. I own many vintage watches, of many brands and have done quite a lot of research on all of them.
I own Heuers Carrera and Autavias, Rolex, Jaeger, Military Breguet, Dodane..all vintages, and even a 165.014, some bought from reputable collectors.
I am here to exchange, not to be lectured, and certainly not to be insulted by an uneducated moron with elementary arguments.
This watch checks so many features of a 1967's Seamaster 024, case, bezel which features relates it to a watch from 1967 to 1969, movement number, not mentioning the original bracelet which goes with that watch.
The archive extract, even if it relates to a movement number, come as confirmation of a number of indices that point to an original watch.
I would be very surprised that all items of the watch would check and the dial would be fake. As for the dial, I have seen "vintage" dials without the Swiss Made, and they were Omega dials, and I wanted to know why you can see such dials.
Answers that such dials are fake seems to me bit short.

·The Military Breguet too. This thread needs more photos!
I had a watch once that quadrupled in value. It was a Seiko 5 that I bought for $10. Glory days, I tell you... Didn't have a nickel case though.
