Integrated bracelet 14K gold Seamaster De Ville, not for people with big wrists but the bracelet is actually in decent shape still.

This one I think has about reached its limit and I wouldn’t bid further given it is a 14K integrated bracelet model, right now its fair priced but if it goes much further it will be excessive

These aren’t the original hands, but I wouldn’t overly care because of that nice special dial on this Seamaster De Ville

This is one of the models featured in @PlainVanilla ’s thread here: https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-seamaster-a-guide-to-special-dials.151225/

This one going off later today, still only $440 at this point, Norman Morris special dials have been getting more popular of late

If the movement is cal. 561, there is no push-pull quick set date feature. Unfortunately, there is no disclosure of the movement caliber in the listing or pictures.

You pays your money and takes your chances. But only if you are in the UK.

This one goes off in just over a day, Ref 167.021 with ultra-thin Cal 712 chronometer within, I think it’ll clean up quite nicely though it does need a new crystal.

No bids and a couple of hours to go on this Connie C shape. It's UK only and importantly it needs some work - I don't know if the cost of the repair makes this a poor deal - basically the quickset function needs replacing - but at the moment it's £450. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285144354936?hash=item4263ed9078:g:SH8AAOSw3Rdj1vdV&amdata=enc:AQAHAAAA0C1jTwGMirsTGXPVkU3Es7FPfbMkumdt5F7vebF5o8HzSv4SFxekKUBmk4wm1IMWTDHCmE5pQq1kLSY4opnfW8dH17VKlgPoqpnXYUz6z8gxSlG2xEQr68sajBRAQIsHsSxKq+XVLIagRpjBbrZkTRLS1dQcxJkdAO1+Azkd7vUR8ZiNNn3DHrvpZvO3TLCKjbXyFECVInD4jQ0q+4r4S0Z6eUSUmuyv9rn8UKRKkI9OLIaF1I27EUEYIlMY6cXTWSmSZpePcR7cNU48LTghsUs=|tkp:Bk9SR6CU3KHPYQ

Well, that went for £475 -a pretty good price for the buyer - but I was interested to see that another buyer bid £485 - and then retracted the bid.

Bearing in mind it had a nice bracelet, I’m a bit baffled by the low price, the fact that there were only two bids and that a third bidder retracted??

The case looks good but to me the dial looks quite poor. It looks damaged everywhere when the light hits it right. A couple of the photos do a really good job of “hiding” it. That and the disclosed movement issue and as gator said, can’t see serial or movement number in the pictures. I think the price is probably right. That dial kills it for me.

I just got an offer for $325, worth it?
Apologies for discussing in this thread. I’m still unsure of the exact etiquette on this.

I say save your money. I could almost handle the dirty dial but the missing indices are pretty bad. Not sure about value of the watch, but I wouldn’t want to look at it myself. Unless you’re thinking of sourcing a replacement dial or a redial or something.

Contacted seller. UK buyer only. Had to retracted the bid. Otherwise it's belong to me.

This is a very international forum - why not open a thread and see if a UK user might be willing to help you forwarding it if you really want it?

Well, I’m sorry that you didn’t get it, it looked really nice and a good price but I’m still a little puzzled as to why there were only two bidders.

(I’ve got a couple of C case Connies and although I was tempted, I thought two’s enough)

Feeling bad now. When I alerted the forum about the auction I nearly offered to be a middleman for someone out of the uk if they wanted to bid, but it all felt too complicated at the time. I wish I had now.
