All I'll say about this one is what I've been saying all along - condition, condition, condition - and this one has it in abundance.

I fully support your stressing: condition, condition, condition (incorporating factory-originality).

Here is another with 'condition rarity'.

'Condition rarity' will be a thing of the past, soon.

Thank-you.

I disagree. That Rolex may be the opposite of condition rarity. I believe that reference is actually quite rare in any condition. Tarnish on the hands and dial are to be expected in any watch that has been used as it was meant to be.

A "condition rarity" means that the piece is common, just not in that condition. We see these small subseconds Seamasters all the time around here. However, what we never see is the watch with the original band, buckle, instruction books, inner and outer boxes, handtags and "cigar band", all in virtually mint condition. I think that package sat in a jeweler's safe for the last 60+ years, untouched by human hands.

That is quite unusual, regardless of the reference.

I have to agree with your disagreement.

That Omega is really one of a kind, in terms of its all-round originality, relative to the Rolex.

Thank-you.
