Guys, It arrived and looks like it is in great shape...at least on the outside. I can't see anywhere that the gold plating has been worn off significantly. Does dial look original to you folks? Regards, Jon
Big thumbs up on that one. I had my doubts from the eBay photos, but as they say in poker..."No balls, no blue chips". Congrats, gatorcpa
Thanks, guys, for the feedback. Anybody think the dial was redone? I'm curious as to why the lume in the hands is so white, but the lume dots are so dark. It seems to be keeping great time. Nonetheless, I am going to take it for an evaluation and servicing by the watchmaker ULackFocus recommended. I paid $289 for it, which seems like a fair deal to me for a fun, very wearable watch. However, I understand that the Cosmic 2000's are on the low end of the Omega spectrum. Warm Regards, Jon
I think this is it from the Omega Vintage Database: SeamasterCosmic 2000 Gents' leather strap Reference ST 166.0131 International collection 1972 Movement Type: Automatic (mechanical) Caliber number: 1022 Created in 1972 23 jewels Functions Day-date Case Stainless steel Case back Press-in Dial With luminous hands Crystal Mineral (flat) Bracelet Leather Water resistance 60 meters Logo on your watch seems to match this one. Maybe the lume was redone, maybe not. You still did well with this one, gatorcpa
