Looking for some help...I am looking to potentially buy a 1970's Cosmic 2000 38mm (non C case) and the seller states the movement was serviced and is a cal. 565, I'm new to this line but in the short research i've done i thought these had the Cal. 1012? I'm unsure of the Ref.# but it looks just like the 166.128 model. Thanks for any help on this!
In any case before buying a preowned watch you should ask for high detailed pictures. There you should see which calibre it has and which reference it is. Then do your research on Omega's website for vintage watches.

you have one you’d like to share a pic of?
Beautiful, where did you get the strap if I may ask?
These are all bangers, would love to join the club 😉
Currently considering buying this one, seller and I just agreed for €250. It's working but it seems to me like the crystal took a big hit at the bottom part though, and the crown is missing. I've asked for more pictures, hopefully in better quality. Any opinions?

What's your budget for restoration?
I'm still waiting for the seller to answer and provide more pictures, I get the feeling I won't receive much more information, hopefully I'll be surprised.
I'd say around 300 grand total maximum. Do you think it's manageable?
Since my first message I've had a crush on another Cosmic in much better condition on eBay... and my fiancee ordered it today! It's a 166.023 Tool 105 Date and it will be my very first Omega - the fact that it'll be an engagement present makes it even more special.
I've been looking back and forth at vintage Omegas for some time now and Seamaster Cosmics really put their spell on me. Genuinely can't wait to rock this one, absolutely loved everything on this one - the dial and hands color combination, fixo-flex bracelet...
