Decent condition entry level Cal 601 Geneve in gold-plate, don’t overpay but these are a nice starter watch for a modest price around 200-350

Brosnan Seamaster (Quartz) listed for no reserve (currently at $100). Might be worth keeping an eye on if you're in the market and don't want to spend a lot.
I think you meant to post this in the Modern Omega recommendations thread, or are you trying to make us feel old?
This nice gold-plated Geneve goes off in a few hours, still only $300
Someone got it at $316. I had a bid up to $301. The winner has zero history so I'm suspicious of shill bidding. I guess if it's relisted that would be extra suspect.
But the serial number visible on the lugs dates it to ~ 1999. So I'm kind a thinking anything last century is close enough to vintage.
I spoke too soon. The auction is not over yet. 43 mins to go. Not sure if I want to bid higher or not, even though the watch is worth it.
First rule of buying Geneves is there will always be another Geneve. These watches have great water resistance, Omega made a huge number of them and the survival rate is extremely high (except for gold plated models suffering wear-through).
Another Geneve chronostop going no reserve, Cal 920 with date this time, the last one of these went for 500 quid which was pretty low

Quite a cool and nice Seamaster De Ville in 14K Solid Gold with a logo dial and case-back engraving
https://www.ebay.com/itm/166478979417
Quite as cool 165.003 Cal 552 in steel with full arabic indices, not sure if the hands are correct, there are some odd edge cases with the more unusual dials but they look cool enough with it that I wouldn’t be bothered given the dial and case condition.

This quite nice 165.003 goes off later today, still fairly cheap so far
