    Hi guys, first thanks for the opportunity to be on the forum. This is my first post, now i have this rare Seamaster that a friend gave me and it seams that i can't find it anywhere on the internet or any catalog from Omega and i don't know if you can put me in the right direction to buy a pair of end links #47 that the watch have but their are broken and don't know where to buy them, so hope you can shed me some light on the history of the watch, see the photos below.
    Thanks! 20181112_094052.jpg

    Not that rare and if you google Omega seamaster 300 you will find a ton of information.
    Never heard of 47 endlinks, I believe proper bracelet is 1035 with #516 endlinks.
    More dial pics please. Dial might be fake but my eyes not so good.

    Edit: Dial is fake/redone

    So maybe is a very old fake watch? I haven't found any photo of it because the wierd thing is the number 300 on this watch is under the Seamaster letters and all that i have seen is next to it!

    Have a look at the movement and then you find out more if it is original or not.
    The dial looks fake as the 300 is below the Seamaster. Stubbies under the hour markers. Don't know if the closed 9 is due to repaint or because it's fake but sure looks not original.
    I would definitely have a look at the inside.

    I'd guess the dial was re-finished a long time ago. People are leery because these watches are frequently faked.
