Thanks Herianto. 😀
It turns out she's been watching my eBay habits and online search queries!
Should I be worried?
Worry? No Mazen...you should be proud....you should ask dsio to create vintage lady Omega sub forum and have her as moderator 😀.
You have to reciprocate now and get her the feminine model LOL
Are you going to put the watch on a strap? I see it on a darker blue croco, maybe with white stitching.

This arrived in the post today omega f300 cone 198.012, before buying it on eBay I was told that it didn't have the original 1250 cal movement and that someone had put an automatic movement in it. However it's all genuine and with a new battery it hummed back into life, another great find at a very affordable price. Chuffed is an understatement!
Funnily enough i have a Replacement crystal on standby, only i cant find the right size a crystal gasket, because i reside in the netherlands O. Frei normally want $61 for postal charges, are there any othe options like a rolex gasket? that would cost me $7ish.

Mine says hi 😀
Try www.electricwatches.co.uk - they might help. They also did a sterling job on the service for mine and although mine didn't need it, if you want the sunburst on the bezel restored they can do that for you also
Crystal gaskets are a bit more "specific" than say a typical case back gasket. In this case it's a Hytrel gasket:
098EW0006 | L CRYSTAL GASKETS Ø32 T1.1 H3.2
Since these hold the crystal in place by friction/compression, the dimensions and shape are critical, as the interference fit has to be just right or the crystal will either not be held in, the gasket will be crushed on installation, or the crystal will break...so trying to use generic parts is tricky in many cases...
