·Hi all,
after some weeks of research I'm close to buy my very first watch. It will be one I'm going to wear daily, or at least consistently. Now, before actually pulling the trigger, I'd love to get an opinion from you all. Just to understand if I'm getting scammed or wasting money.
It's a 14381 ref from '61, caliber 551. How the watch looks to my newbie eyes:
- the dial should be original and I don't see things raising suspicion that it could be a redial (?)
- case looks good, with reasonably sharp angles
- the hour and minute hands match the dial, hence they should be the original ones
- I asked for a higher definition pic detailing the second hand: I don't understand if it's flat on the center as it's supposed to be (?)
- I asked for a higher definition pic of the caliber
- the crown might be the original one
- the bracalet is an original Omega 1037 / 570.
- it's a professional watch dealer and claimed they serviced it, and it comes with 12 months warranty.
Asking price is 1100€. I'm not looking to get the best deal of my life, but obviously it would be great if I'm paying a reasonable price. What do you guys think?
