To put everyone out of the
UK Watch, Geneve Cal 565 automatic in steel, nice looking case, dial, hands and movement

https://www.ebay.com/itm/384656235063?hash=item598f4c5a37:g:5-UAAOSwm6Jh1DKP&LH_Auction=1


Currently a good price with 7 hours to go.

Were I to buy it, I’d have the hands and indices sympathetically cleaned and the case too, as and when I got it serviced.

Already have my eye on this one!
Although with 27 bids so far I’m expecting the price to jump up quite a bit.

Success!
Managed to fend off a snipe in the dying seconds to secure my first Omega purchase.
Big thanks to the OF over the past couple of months for invaluable info and advice.
We’ll look forward to seeing it

How did you fend off a snipe?

With a counter-snipe?

You can choose the time gap before the bidding closes on some of the services but with a risk that your offer may not get tendered.
The only other way to beat a snipe is a sniper with a deeper pocket as far as I know.
Please pm the secrets @Mush, but only to me please.

@UncleBuck @arturo7 Nothing so tactical as counter or preemptive snipes! Just set a higher max l bid I guess. The price jumped from £340 to £460 in the last 2 sec, I had set my limit at £500.

Just over a day left on this one, still very low so far
what's the reference on this? do you think the fact that the crystal is cracked and thus would need a new, non-original crystal takes away a lot of the value from a collectors standpoint? I have been looking at some of the 168 ref 60s Omegas in SS to purchase and this could be a suitable solution at a good price for me. I'm just not sure if I should wait and pay more for a better condition case/crystal which will last me longer.

Good effort!
I love snipes because I set my limit rationally (?) and then sit back and watch the show. It helps prevent rum-induced or emotional bidding. My sellers probably hate it.
