No

I'm pretty sure they were, but maybe Mike can chime in. I've never had more than one of these at the same time so I can't compare them. 😕

I said no because your photo is shadowed in on my screen making it appear solid case instead of end links, but they are almost the same.

General styling is very similar but case design not identical. The cal. 751 case is considered better and I believe in solid gold guise has the entire body carved from a single ingot of gold like roles does with the president model. I don't think the date only cases have similar construction. Also their crystal replacements (even the ones without magnifiers) have different references from omega meaning they are not the same and is another point in favor of the cases not being identical.

I think I'd like to go for this one. Can you help me out with the price I should expect to pay?

$500-600 should do it.

Do you think these could be redials?
I'm far from being an expert but the ranchero spec seems to have a bit of a pointy A and the final r looks a little wrong to my untrained eye.
As for the 600 it looks great but very clean for that age,
what do you think?

Both dials look like originals to me (not repainted). The seller has a good reputation for selling manual wind omegas in good condition (and without reconditioning them).

In the Seamaster, the "Swiss Made " is not centered. Dont know if it matters, though.

You are right. In the front shot it looks centered. My mistake.

I like it, but IMHO, will wait for others to weigh in their opinions. Not sure what it may be, but I see what may be flaking or peeling on the left bottom lug. Also, medallion on case back appears to be a different color or it could be just angle/lighting issue in photo. Dial show Chronometer, without "Certified", can this be correct?

1. That is just dirt or scratch - This is a solid gold watch.
2 Yes, that is fine.
3. Yes the Script is correct for this model, we have discussed this before.

Does the medallion always stick out like that on gold models?
