    Hi!
    Please help me with opinion and advice...
    Is this watch original? The dial and hands is original, or is it a NOS/redial/repainting...? I don`t know exactly what to say it.

    And how much do you think it worth?
    Thank you!

    A google search gives 2 examples of that concentric dial I had never seen before. I think it is very nice. The general appearance is correct and (IMHO) it is an original omega dial. It is worth what people pay for it. Taking into account you have to service it after buying, I would think that 300-400 would be fair. However, ebay auctions show I am wrong VERY often.

    As I had some time on my hands I also did an image search and also came up with two examples of this dial. The curious thing is they are both from the same Dutch dealer - see https://www.vtgwatch.com/omega-seam...d-ref-135-011-cal-601-vintage-watch-1966.html and https://www.vtgwatch.com/omega-seamaster-600-stunning-condition-caliber-601-st-135-011.html Different watches, different prices and different dates of manufacture as per the pictures/descriptions.

    Pure coincidence?

    I have had two of those SM600´s with a concentric dial.
    Not exactly rare, but quite uncommon :)

    The case of your example seem to been in a very nice state. Sharp lugs with no apparent polish being done. Do you have a picture of the back?

    I dont think 500 euros is an unfair price. Especially not, if the seller can prove that is has been serviced. The caseback looks good with its original brushed finish.

    I honestly can't remember what I paid for mine, but I think it was in that region :)

    @Hnansen , I recently bought a wonderful SM600 concentric dial (ST 135.011, Cal. 601, 1965). No original strap, buckle nor box, though.

    Do you happen to know which strap, buckle and box might be period correct for my watch?

    My Google image research indicates the following.

    * Strap
    lizard skin 18/16 mm, black

    * Buckle
    (a) special buckle by EK a.k.a. dynamic buckle (stainless steel),
    (b) some oblong buckle (stainless steel) by MG, or less likely by EK.

    * Box
    What are you thoughts? Have any of your SM600 concentric dial watches had period correct strap, buckle or box?[/QUOTE]
