Decent price on a buy-it-now:

Ref. 168.004. Crown needs replacement. Other than that, a good honest watch.

Omega Cosmic with a great, blue sunburst dial.

I have dealt with the seller before and he ships fast. If my previous purchases were anything to go by, you should bargain hard and offer a price a fair bit below the asking price 馃榾

EDIT: for the record, I realise that this isn't a perfect specimen, but the price is reasonable and I believe it could easily be haggled down further. I do like this particular dial variety of Cosmic 馃榾

It was originally listed at 拢500 with a few very blurred photos but enough to tell it was probably a good thing if you looked carefully. I was hoping for the chance of a successful gamble but some "helpful" ebayer obviously tipped him off.
Curious, the dial says "Automatic Chronometre Officially Certified", a mix of french and english.

Quite normal for the time.

BTW, as you can see, there's sharp cases and then there's sharp cases.馃槈

I also thought the original listing was worth a gamble, was going to risk about 拢1600 ish. No idea where it will end up now. EBay's not the best place to get a bargain once it goes to auction.

That makes me feel better because I was only going to risk 拢1500!

Summer season. Everything's a bit slow. A few pieces I've been keeping an eye on have either sold cheaply, or not sold at all.
