I bought this 5 years ago and had it serviced by a watchmaker in Ohio (?) who specializes in these. I can find the name of the place for an interested party. Crystal: replaced at service. a few very minor scratches that can easily buff out. Dial: I can not find any flaws in the black gloss so I will call it mint. Any visible flaws are either artifact or surface scratches on crystal. Crown: original Movement: serviced 5 years ago and worn about 6-8 times since then. hacking works fine and date snaps smartly into place at 12. Case: I believe it's unpolished. plenty of little surface scratches but overall very good. bevels and contours are crisp. Hands: original with slight amount of rust and discoloration of lume on minute hand. If this is not to your liking, it is quite simple to have the hand gently cleaned and relumed to match the hour hand. Reduced to $500 ONRO. pp friends or bank transfer. Shipping to lower 48 is on me. Overseas will split shipping. No trades please as I am in strict sell-off mode. recent sales references: : https://omegaforums.net/search/11839768/?q=tmw57&o=date&c[node]=10
Looks nice I almost got one recently. Can I ask if all from the era are snap on backs like that or did they make some front loaders?
