Request assessment of potential purchase

davide.brunetti · Nov 9, 2025

Hello,
I'm considering purchasing my first Omega watch, I'm an absolute beginner.
These two caught my attention and I'm looking for advice on:

do they look original or do they show obviously replaced parts?
they're listed at 1080 and 1490 respectively. Do they seem fairly priced?
any other eventual red flags?

The two resellers are vintage-portfolio.com and dumarko.com: in case you have any remark on either of those.

First one: Seamaster 30 Vintage, ref 125.003 (1080eur)

Second one: ref 185.022 (1490eur)

Thanks,
Davide

Avoid vintage-portfolio. He’s been banned from the forum multiple times for a reason.

The second one is vastly overpriced unfortunately, even for a dealer. If they charge a high amount I’d at least expect them to offer a properly serviced example, not a watch with an old, broken gasket.

Agreed about vintage-portfolio, you want to stay away from him. The second watch looks decent, but at least double what I'd consider paying.
