I remember a thread from a while back about these. Wondered how this compares for price and condition as I know nothing about these watches. Asking £595.
Hi! I collect Omega Suverän and Officer's. http://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-officer-and-suverän.15962/ They were made for the Swedish market I have had at least 10 Suverän and the prices i have paid has been from 88£ to 265£. I have purchased all of them in Sweden. I would say £595 is way to much. Find them here instead http://www.tradera.com/ Best Thomas
The case is the second execution of Suveran, and I would have expected a copper-plated movement inside. Also, the crown is wrong and the dial is pretty heavily patinaed. For that asking, I would have wanted a better specimen
Marturx: Look at this tread, there is the variations of the case over time: http://itstime.dk/urdebatten/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=5036
Thanks for the replies. I Was asking more out of curiosity than anything else, as they are far to small for me. Mind you at the prices Thomas is paying they could make a very interesting watch to collect.
Wow, maybe i should make a business of bying them in Sweden for £150-200 and sell for £400 on eBay even with wrong hands
I have no intention, i am a collector not a trader. But i have purchased about 15 Suverän over the years from Sweden and they are often for sale, often not listet as a Suverän but the back gives it away I scan the market in Sweden daily, it is where i find the most of my Omega's.
I've bought watches in the past with the sole intention of selling them on. Trouble is I usually buy what I like thinking others will also like it, and then find I want to keep it.
This is what you get for GBP 150-200 in Sweden. The collectible ones, with good dial, you have to cough up somewhat more for....
Agree, as i wrote earlier i have paid up to 265£ for the best ones. The one you show i purchased on Tradera for £150. And it was actually in a ok condition, nice case, good running movement and original. Some of them for sale has wrong hands and sometime wrong dials.
tdn-dk you are my go to guy for all things Suveran. Anyone with a collection like yours would be grinning at threads like this..
See this has mysteriously become available again. Thought it had been sold once. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-MENS...es_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item35e44372afPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network
