    Dear all

    The watch arrived today and I really confused about it's condtions. I do not have tools to open it; due to the seria number 166023, the cal should be 562 or 565.
    The problem is that the crown seem to be a little shaky, not firmly especially when it is pulled out to level 3. Is it normal with this type of caliber?

    Is it worth 250 Euro? I buy it from ebay and can return with 7 days; should I keep it?

    Thank you very much

    There is some pictures:

    I have a very similar Seamaster. Mine is a manual vs. yours which is an auto, but other than that they look identical. I've seen them go for $200-$400 USD on Ebay. It seems like an OK buy, but not great.

    Not sure what these are currently selling for, but the wear through the plating is significant and cannot be repaired cheaply. Personally, I would stay away from any watch that has that kind of wear.

    Very similar to my grandfather's one, but externally in quite worst conditions.

    Thanks all for advises
    I also think I will have to pay a lot to have it repaired, so I decided to send it back

    By the way, I have another question about Omega Geneve Automatic
    My friend recently bought it, she sent me a picture:

    What I wonder is the hands, I try a google search, there just is a few examples of that kind of hands, so I am not sure whether they are the original hands or not.
