·18k gold Omega Seamaster bumper automatic, so understandably the asking price is higher given where gold prices are right now. That said, for the money, the watch shows quite a bit of wear. The movement looks fairly dirty and would clearly need a proper service.
The dial, however, is the standout feature - a very attractive waffle (honeycomb) dial that appears original, with consistent texture and well-matched. I guess that any dial can be retouched or restored.But I would suspect it's harder with a waffle style?. I'm so not sure about The Crown. Maybe after market?
This is really my favorite style of vintage watch.I love the bumpers.
Would appreciate any thoughts from those who’ve handled original examples
