·well. Let’s compare the 613 movement that you said “no problem” with a photo I collect online. Do you really think that an omega movement should has script like that
1. Movement tou said that is “ok” @JimInOz

·Those scripts can’t even stay straight and in-line with each other. Look at the pointed “A” in OMEGA and WATCH; compare with the more flat “A” in other photo. And well, I think they were engraved by hand by someone. Agreed!?

··Melbourne AustraliaThe seller's photos are heavily edited so that may account for the bad picture. I would like to see the OPs movement in a decent photo when they get it.
The markings on a movement are done by an automatic pantograph engraving machine. Sometimes a stylus may become worn or loose in a collet and produce less that satisfactory markings, but I can't see any evidence of frehand engraving.
Sometimes these lesss than satisfactory examples slip through the QA net, but not too often.

·well you’re right. I did make two wrong advices in recent days but I admited them when others pointed them out. If you insist the caliber 613 left the Omega factory like that then I have nothing more to discuss btw :-/

·Hi. Here are the photos I took. Would you say it's not worth keeping and servicing, considering I paid almost 400€? Is it overpriced, as it's been stated? There's also a video that shows how the mechanism stops. Thanks!

·What are your concerns exactly? I don't think anyone in this thread made any plausible points that would lead you to return it. Paying for a service is another question altogether. That's a sizable expense for a watch like this, and maybe you should live with it for a few months before deciding.

·Turn the crown clockwise until it won't turn anymore. It will probably need at least 30 turns, and eventually it will come to a hard stop. Don't try to force it any further. This is a manual winding mechanical watch. You will need to wind it every day.
