Picked this up the other day, trying to find out how authentic it is. Movement looks good, all markings look good, serial number shows a 1984 circa but I cant figure out the case. Also can't find a picture of another Seamaster that looks like this.

196.0260 case# 1420 cal.

What you think? Value? Legit?

 

It's a nice clean style that could be worn today and still hold its own.

while it doesn't appear in the OVDB, I call it as genuine, but value would be relatively low.

Who knows, maybe "vintage quarz" will become the next Omega collector grail.

 

Value: maybe $150. Legit: yes, looks authentic.

Um, yeah....... wouldn't bet on that.

 

Looks legit from what I can see on the Omega Extranet. Gold plated case, cal 1420, dial and hands look right.

Cheers, Al
