I am located in Sweden. And i havent decided if I will keep or sell. I am waiting for Aldos feedback on fixing the missing part on the bezel. If I get an offer that is good enough i might sell ”as is”.

If you're selling you shouldn't bother restoring at all. Buyers who pay top dollar would rather buy as is.

You'll need to list on another platform such as eBay etc as you don't have the required posts to sell here.

Although it may be effective, this is not how sales are done on this forum.

If the OP is first waiting for Aldo to reply, he will have plenty of posts to sell here.😀

No worrie. Like I say, if you do decide to sell, it's not worth the time and effort on your part to restore or service it (or worse case, an unsympathetic restoration could significantly devalue it).

It is a 2913-6. One sold here before.
Judging by the caseback, I think the OP watch is probably a 14755.
Out of interest—very eager to learn—how can you tell the (outside) difference between a CK2913-6 and a 14755 @gemini4 and @redpcar? I've had a look at their respective case backs here and here, and they're identical to me. I know the two references use different movements, but I wonder if there are visual cues that I missed.

It's an innocent mistake, but please take the time to familiarize yourself with the forum rules. Posts or threads will sometimes be removed if they appear to be an attempt to sell outside of the sales forum.

Notice the 2913 case bumps out at the center of the caseback. The 500/501 movement is shaped differently vs the 550/552

One of those "once you see it" experiences. Thanks! I was too much focused on the hippocampus and the inscription to notice 😟

Don't bother looking for a replacement bezel. They don't exist. If they do, you will have to race me to them. There are plenty of owners in need.

Would it not be at least possible that a replacement bezel for the 60th Seamaster 300 fit?

I initially looked into it when the '57s were released a couple of years ago. My initial measurement estimates were that they were very close. Now if we could convince Omega or someone to sell us one... 😀

Cool watch. Unless I missed it, I'm surprised nobody has discussed the bracelet. No 6 ends and needing correct buckle et al. Happy New Year!

Is it possible to get hold of the right buckle? And what is the ref number on the bracelet

The original bracelet was probably a 7912 circa 1964 ish.
These bracelets, and sometimes only the buckles, pop up on eBay.

Wow its really fun to learn everything about this little beauty!
Any idea what a buckle might go for? Does the buckle have an sep parts number?
