I’m aware of that watch at Philips.

I’m not trying to bring you down, just trying to add some realism as someone who fairly frequently buys vintage watches from original owners.

Re the Philips example, it and the price realised cannot be compared to yours for several reasons.
1. The condition is significantly better. Don’t under estimate how much the likely broken dial feet will impact the value of your watch.
2. Timing - in 2018 vintage watch values were on the way up. Today they’re very much on their way down.
3. The seller; Philips is a marketing machine and routinely achieves very high, or record prices. A private seller cannot expect to achieve such prices 99% of the time.
4. Not to mention the Philips watch had an extract (and to a much lesser degree an original bracelet).

And so I don't expect this price, but on the other hand, I expect a reasonable and decent price.
Or maybe I'll send it to a good, experienced dealer and pay brokerage.
If you want to make an offer, feel free to send me a private message.
And even if you don't want to buy it, I promise we'll stay friends anyway.
In any case, thanks, and good luck to all of us.

I know this is an older post, but by now you should be aware of the rules.

No doubt you are a genuine person who is not familiar with modern technology and you calaim to be an older man (join the club).
So there is no doubt of your age, can you post a photo (just of your hand if you are shy).
The photo must include a piece of paper with the words "new to Omega forums".

When you have convinced us you are genuine, we will enjoy posts about your watch, but never mention here that it's for sale.

Somehow I dont really trust the OP. Something seems to be off. Sorry to be so direct OP. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks friend, for the support and the help.
is 64 is old enough 😀 ?
I understand that I was wrong and I'm trying to delete the posts for sale, but I don't know how to do it.
That's why I deleted the content and the pictures so that they don't get angry with me beyond what is necessary.
As soon as I succeed I will repost just to be proud of this special watch.

🤦

So, this makes it twice now that you have broken the rules by trying to sell this watch. The mods already deleted your other newly created sales listing…

When was this message sent to you???
I in no way sent it today, maybe it was sent two weeks ago when I posted the post and I didn't know the rules??
I repeat that today I did not send any such message!!!!
