·Having had this watch on my WTB list for a little while, circumstances came together at the end of 2015, and I ended up buying two non running watches.
They have now both been fully refurbished by STS, including a total mechanical overhaul and full service, and a case cleanup/refinish.
To help fund future purchases, I'm putting one up for sale.
Serial 2809XXXX dates this to 1969.
This is the larger cased 145.0007 - a more modern sized watch than a lot of the other 1960's Omegas.
Condition:
Mechanically, it's just been full serviced by STS, and comes with a 2 year guarantee from them that runs until 12/04/2018.
Cosmetically:
Dial - original, the lume plots at 2, 4,. and 6 are partially degraded.
Hands - original and good, even lume in hands
Bezel - some spotting to the bezel between 11 and 4.
Crown/Pusher - Replaced at Service for new Genuine Omega Parts.
Crystal - Replaced at Service for New Genuine Omega Part.
Case - The case has been refinished, there are some light scratches between the lugs, one small dink at 5 in the bevel, and some light scratches to the back on the main case at 12, and 5 where someone has in the past slipped with a tool.
Looking at eBay sold values, these seem to go anywhere between £1000 and £1500 in good condition, but unserviced.
Given that this is fully serviced, and under guarantee, but not cosmetically perfect, I'm looking for a fairly firm £1000, including PayPal Fees, and RMSD within the UK, or £10 towards international shipping costs.
I am open to close offers, and potentially to trades.
But offering me half the selling price, or a timex is going to get you a polite decline. 😉
I'm based in London, UK - Face to Face viewings are possible.
Cheers
Chris
