Seamaster 30 - Need your advice

Hi guys,

I'm a new member on the forum (though have been lurking over the past year) and found this beautiful Seamaster 30 on Ebay. The seller has indicated that the watch is completely original (minus the strap).

What is your opinion on this watch - does it seem all original to you?

Bump

Any thoughts on the originality of this watch - does anything appear fake/out of place/refinished/repainted?

Dial looks very nice - though maybe relumed as Gatorcpa said. Everything looks good.

The case looks in fair condition. But, though 40 microns means a good quality plating, it is not a "capped" case but a "plated" one. It remains a nice watch.

Thanks for all the input.

Anyone well versed with vintage Seamasters willing to give some input on what should be ballpark price for such a watch? Have I paid too much, too little, or about right?

Update on this watch. Before I could make a payment, I heard back from the seller notifying me that the watch now has an issue which is not mentioned in the listing and he recommended that I don't send the $.

Ended up purchasing a beautiful vintage Longines instead.
