I have owned the watch for nearly 2 years and not worn it other than to photograph it. Making room for new incoming. Many photos in different light conditions including indirect and direct sunlight. Movement photos from prior seller at time of service. DIAL: Silver starburst dial in excellent vintage condition, almost no age spotting only minor imperfections seen with loupe. All original with applied Omega logo and stick indices. Tritium lume pips at periphery of all indices, seen with UV light on photo. Date window at 3:00. Dial is almost perfect, with a slight dimple noted between 9-10 indices on periphery. Only seen on some angles if I didn’t point it out probably never notice. But I prefer full disclosure.

Newbies looking for a first watch? Why buy crap off eBay when you can get this nice one right here from a well respected Forum member.
Maybe i should buy this just for the bracelet and take off some direct competition! trying to sell mine for more and does not even include a bracelet. Bargain, it should have sold yesterday!
