Hello,

I'm cleaning up some things and this project will likely never be completed. Here are for trade the remnants of a Seamaster 120 166.027. It came from the graveyard of a long retired Omega-related watch repair guy who was active in the 60 through the 80s, so it is not a modern copy. If you have a cheap seamaster 120 with a wrong/missing bezel this is your chance.




Description:
The good news : the bezel turns as it should and has a pleasing overall patina
The bad news : the lume pip is missing, some marks on the caseback, a ref number scratched underside a lug
The horrible news : the case threads are damaged! I'm not sure they can be rethreaded so that the back can fit (as it is now, you cannot screw the back). The threads on the caseback appear to be fine but I do not have another case in good shape to test it.

So, to use this bezel you either have to transplant it to another case or repair the threads on this case. In conclusion you will essentially get the bezel and movement ring, maybe the caseback. The midcase is a freebie.

I would like to prioritize a trade, for a bezel suitable to a 145.022-69:
- a faded/grey DoN (not looking for a pristine jet black example)
- a vintage telemeter / KM bezel
- a vintage decimal bezel

If you would like to offer something else, why not? I'm all ears.

Location of the items: France
Easier for me to send in EU but I can send overseas too.

Value :
Hard to value but let's say 1000eur net to me? Do feel free to make an offer.

Returns: no

Payment : bank transfer

Bump!

Feel free to make any offer because I really don't know how to accurately value this...
