It’s so beautiful!! So please help me keeping the perspective.

 

Well, Goldsmiths, jewellers are currently selling new ones for £2,440.00 so a second hand one should be less, depending on the case material

You are very quick, dependable, and accurate. Also, by now you know that I got a bit side tracked in my search for a vintage Omega.
Thanks and happy Easter!

 

I have to say that I liked the little blue(?) dial automatic that you posted yesterday.
Happy Easter to you too

 

Thanks.
There are too many options out there.
But I am enjoying the journey.

 

Seller asks £1300 for it. Could probably have it for a bit less. It has a box (for which I don’t care) but no papers... But I hesitate to spend so much money on a quartz watch. And then the Omega would have to wait... well, I am learning a lot here. For when the time comes.

 

I think you would quickly tire of this piece.

 

Is that even real? It loooks so inelegant.

 

That is entirely possible, thanks.

I never tire of my Longines Saint Imier, which I wear daily since I bought it (new) in 2016. But I feel the time has come for a few more options. I would like to build a small selection, preferably with vintage watches in the mix. However, this one is off track, of course.

 

That is certainly a matter of taste? It does remind me of the Longines Présence, which costs less and is very elegant as well (at least in my opinion):

I have seen Cartier up close. This seems very off the quality std. I don’t think its real.

 

Indeed. I don't like the dial, feels fake to me too.

 

That's why I asked.

 

I am often unsure about Cartier watches. It's sometimes hard to tell the difference between fakes and some of their crappy entry-level pieces. Either way, the OP watch isn't appealing to me.

 

Taste is personal but I see nothing stunning about this watch, real or fake.
