·I’m looking for a bit of advice on a Omega Speedmaster Date (ref. 3211.30.00, cal. 1164) that I’m considering buying privately.
I’ve been sent a few videos and photos from the seller and just wanted a second opinion before going ahead.
Details:
My main concern:
The seller has sent videos of the date being changed manually, but across a few different videos on different days the date appears to stay the same. I’m unsure if:
I’ll be checking this in person by rolling the time past midnight, but wanted to get opinions from anyone experienced with this model.
Questions:
Any help would be massively appreciated 👍
I’ve been sent a few videos and photos from the seller and just wanted a second opinion before going ahead.
Details:
- Full set (box + cards)
- Serial on case matches the cards
- General condition looks good with some normal wear
- Price agreed: £1,400
My main concern:
The seller has sent videos of the date being changed manually, but across a few different videos on different days the date appears to stay the same. I’m unsure if:
- The watch hasn’t been running, or
- The date isn’t advancing automatically overnight
I’ll be checking this in person by rolling the time past midnight, but wanted to get opinions from anyone experienced with this model.
Questions:
- Does everything look genuine from the photos/videos?
- Is the date behaviour something to worry about on this movement?
- At £1,400, does this seem like a fair deal given no service history?
Any help would be massively appreciated 👍
