    Newbie here,

    Just wanting people's thoughts, just purchased this on eBay, 99% sure it's gen, but there's that many high quality fakes these days...
    Came with all boxes cards (match watch)spare links etc. weight feels right, winds nice, date drops in nice with a click (and just past 12) second hand stops when the crowns out, which also feels sprung right.
    Had a seamaster before and also a moon speedy.

    If made after 2003 it may have the Omega anti-counterfit logo on the back…

    Yeah it's a 2001 and does have that mark on, I presume they've not copied that yet then? Cheers

    Watch looks fine to me, don't assume the anti-counterfeiting symbol hasn't been copied, it probably has but I think the watch is correct.

    Is the PO your first Omega?

    No, owned one for around 15 years in different guises, first was a bond seamaster, then had the Manuel moon speedy, which I sold 12 months back to help pay divorce fees [emoji16] so needed a new one!
    Funny how being without a nice watch makes you feel naked!

    I check on the Omega Extranet and that serial number is for a 22085000, so everything looks legit to me.

    Cheers, Al

    Cheers Al, had an email from omega today saying the same, though with the addition I send it them to verify its movement!.
    Satisfied now, thanks for your input peeps!

    Don't see any value in sending it off, do you guys!? It'll be due a service in the next 18 months, may as well wait I think!
