    Is this a good value and genuine? Currently on eBay and asking $275 plus shipping with a BO option.

    I can’t see an eBay link - if you’re asking for an opinion as to value, it helps.

    Judging just on the photos you’ve posted, it looks a little tired and dirty, so it’s likely that the movement is too.

    Is it the photo or the case - which looks dented/damaged at 3 o’clock and 8 o’clock.

    I like Oris but they’re not hugely popular and I think that this is significantly overpriced.

    I think it’s important to note that the Oris of then is not the Oris of now. They were a bargain brand and used plated cases and cheap movements most of the time. There are a few exceptions, but the one shown here falls into the cheaper category.

    This dropped to $400 and I couldn't resist. Wasn't looking for a Seamaster but how can I say no?

    I was beginning to think something had gone wrong in the world. I am glad you got it, it will be a nice addition to your collection!

    I'm glad someone finally dropped the hammer on the 600. I really can't afford to buy something like that right now but I've been coming back to it and counting my pennies every day. The temptation was strong.
    I'll probably never find one in such great shape at such a price ever again.

    Just keep watching that seller's ads. I swear @Toishome puts up great starter/obtainable watches at (or below) his cost just to get people hooked on the hobby.

    I didn’t realize it, but after a search I see he’s put a ton of nice seamasters up for sale recently. What’s next, @Toishome ? ;)

    My New Years plan was to adhere to a strict one in one out policy. I’ve already busted that two days into the year! ::facepalm1::

    Here’s one for sale in the UK. All steel, seller is going a bit nuts about the condition - I wonder if it’s had the Alladin’s lamp treatment but the pictures are so poor it’s hard to know. Still, cheap as chips I would have thought.
