    Hi everyone,

    I'm new to the forum! I've been really wanting to purchase my first vintage Omega. I've been reading up on the forum to try to make myself more knowledgeable of what to look for a so forth. I came across a seller called, "Timeless Gallery Shop" which is on Etsy and Chrono24. He has a fair amount of vintage Seamasters which seem to be priced decently. The problem is he is from overseas's (I'm in the US) so I can't go see it and I've never used chrono24 or Etsy. I was wondering if anyone could give their thoughts on the watch. Please see the link below:
    https://www.etsy.com/listing/674361695/omega-vintage-1950s-omega-seamaster?ref=shop_home_active_15

    Thank you to everyone on the forum. I has been a great help to learn more and more about Omega's!

    Welcome!

    It helps if you post the photos and ad text here, rather than just a link. That will get you more/ better responses.

    Crown is not original despite being signed. Hands seem to be missing their lume which I never like. The minute hand also appears to be broken? Other than that it seems fine.

    I’d say the price is high given the aforementioned issues.

    'Is that not lume on the hands and markers? Where do you see the break?

    It’s hard to tell but it looks to me like the lume is missing. Circled below is where it looks broken.

    You may well be right, looking at it that closely.
