A pickup from roughly a month ago.
It’s in Nesbit’s hands getting some preventative maintenance… mainly movement only.

Would appreciate all opinions be it pos/neg.
Thanks!

Fair enough..

Patina of dial, hands, indicies and lume
Case still showing the beveled edges and not polished into oblivion. Uniformity of the case’s appearance along with the case back and bezel. Lettering font and wear on case back.
Open loop 6 and 9.
Pin down holes for lume application at 12 and 6.
Documents showing serviced by Omega in 2017 along with archives extract and Omega travel case.
One of the last of the naiad type 02/06/1967.
Lugs devoid of shoddy strap change marks.

Price! 😎
Uncertainty of bezel and insert being original. Crown as well.
Bakelite insert has small bit missing from 12 o’clock.
No OG or factory service bracelet. ( a new Forstner bracelet was included).

Engraved name, too
Came with this 300 when purchased.

Used as intended from the wear.

Imo, a priceless heirloom of UDT/SEAL heritage from the Vietnam era.

If your watch is FEB67, the bezel insert font is exactly as it should be in this period. HF case maker, flat feet crown original. Very well preserved example.
Would appreciate sharing your Extract of Archives, or few digits from your SN, i assume it starts with 2470...and deliver country pls for my records, thx.
