Hello all, hope you are well. I saw a vintage omega Seamaster ref. 2667 (probably 1950-1951 from the serial number) and wanted to check if you guys think there is ajy6red flag to it. It's selling for 290$

I wouldn't buy it. The dial has been stripped through aggressive cleaning.
I didn't look any further than that.

The applied omega logo isn’t even straight any more :/

No red flag. Buy it if you like it. For collectors this is a disaster .

Stick around on the forum, read, learn, ask questions and - most importantly - don’t rush into your first vintage watch purchase. You’re not ready yet and you definitely don’t want this watch. Trust us.

When a seller's picture order is to lead with photo's of the case back and movement it is 99% of the time because the dial is toast.

This is no exception.
