Hi there, I got some photos of this watch: Omega Seamaster Deville Cal. 563 from a local seller. I would like to have it in my collection but still wonder if it is a franken watch. It seems that the dial has been repainted, the "swiss made" disappeared, there is no Seamaster hippocampus logo. I appreciate receiving your comments on the watch. About price: 900US$ is overpriced ? St
The dial is definitely refinished. Not worth the money even if it's a solid gold case (which I doubt).
According to this article: http://www.mediafire.com/file/o5zayzn34mz/Unearthed Omega Calibre 560 Rarities.pdf, the case ref. KM 6610 is the 14K solid yellow gold case, but it should have a Seamaster hippocampus logo.
The 563 movement is correct for this KM6610 case, which is from the US collection and it is not uncommon to see this style without the hippocampus. I have owned a few examples with the same case. The main concern here is the dial. It is obviously refinished and quite possibly not original to the watch. At 900$ I would think its overpriced.
