Any link?

I've updated the original post to have a link.

As an aside, as a patina lover, this would be my one to keep an eye out for (as it's the only one with a signed crown):

A few Omegas of note popped up in an Aussie based auction house. All end in a week 👍
Was looking into some of these earlier it’s the same city as me and some interesting items, must be an estate or something. The Seamaster front loaders are probably the nicest of them

It's a really nice watch, but no reserve auctions tend to attract a feeding frenzy and I doubt it will be cheap.
It can be but I’ve always tended to do well on N/R listings, several of these previous ones went for reasonable money and would have been good pickups for their buyers like the UK Seamaster previously and so on, ultimately if its a nice watch and the condition is there I’d work out a budget and give it a go

Nice condition Geneve 601 in steel that would look very nice as a daily wearer once the twist-o-flex is replaced with a strap and the grime is removed during servicing. price is about what they’ve been going for recently but could ask teh seller to open it a bit lower since there are no bids yet.

This one’s in the UK so if you’re there and wanting to avoid the tax implication of imports this one could be a nice option especially if you make na offer on it, 562 Seamaster, no tritium which is always a plus, original yellow gasket so likely never serviced:

Just heard this one went to a UK member after an agreed offer so should see it once its cleaned up before long 👍

It’s a bit harder now for some of our UK guys with anything not local attracting VAT these days and fairly high demand on shore

This seller on eBay has a watchmakers estate being progressively revealed…https://www.ebay.com.au/str/harringtonandcohnco
Only just realized this is literally a couple of suburbs away from me, might need to head around and do some snooping, they’ve had some really cool stuff on occasion but didn’t really connect the bricks and mortar store to the ebay shop

These 712 ultrathins are among the lesser known great models of the era, excellent high quality movement, great to wear, nice design and decent water resistance for a vintage watch with nice dials yet because so few people know about them they tend to not get much interest, this one’s going no reserve in the UK so no VAT for our British friends:

great looking dress watch Constellation - but Desmond’s chart suggests this ref was first released in 1972.
Omega might have had a stockpile of 712s they eventually used up but a 26,5xxxx serial movement smells a bit early to me.
Something worth considering if anyone intends bidding.
