    Recently I bought this watch in 150 dollars, I have had anothers seamaster deville but the rare part in this one is the omega logo at twelve. Also, dont have the legend deville. I checked in other posts and I found another questions related but no one reach final conclussion. Kind regards from México.

    The dial looks original to me. The SWISS MADE is aligned correctly and low on the curve, the crosshairs are thin and dissect the letters in the proper places, and the inking is fine (not too thick).

    My concerns are small: No T's on either side of SWISS MADE despite the hands and dial having lume, and if the crosshairs are painted over the lume dots (can't tell for sure from that picture).

    Interesting design with missing markers.

    The Seamaster with that coat hanger S don't have T just because they were a bit early for that.

    Seen enough of this style to say it was a legitimate and uncommon variation.

    That’s a fantastic deal! Don’t come across something like that everyday.

    Hi, I think my question is kind of related to the discussion above and too small to start a new thread:
    Could a 1970 166.032 be with lume on hands and markers but without T's on either side of Swiss Made?
    Specifically this:

    Plenty of Omegas don't have the Ts even when tritium was used, it isn't a red flag necessarily, only on some models like the Speedmaster and even then there are a few exceptions around 1962-3
