·Crown looks wrong. Crystal looks like it could be cracked along the edge from 11 - 1. Dial might be original, hand is blocking the O in Omega, could be an innocent mistake, but this is a classic technique to conceal an issue with the logo. Case back looks unusual to me, is this a 31mm? Better pics might help.

·Dial sure looks original to me - and in great shape too. Case seems to be a bit polished but better pictures are needed. The 18mm strap would indicate that it is a 34mm watch. Crown is a later replacement but that's not a deal-breaker. In total, this is exactly the watch I would roll the dice on if the price was right (and if the seller says it runs and keeps time). I would 'bet' around 460 euros max if it was situated in Europe - be aware that prices in different parts of the world will typically be lower.

·Here's the sellers description:
Dial in amazing condition? Super sharp, never polished case? Original crown? Flawless crystal? Maybe he's referring to a different watch. The price isn't absurd, but when a seller goes all euphemistic like this, I'd rather stay away from it.
For your consideration today I have a stunning Omega Seamaster DeVille with the original papers in the best all original condition l've ever seen! It truly is in my opinion the perfect dress/casual watch in this price range.

This watch was bought on 12/06/1966 In Sint-Truiden In Belgium
Highlights: The dial is in amazing condition and has some really cool specks that glow in the light. The sunburst effect also ads so much depth to the watch and radiates style. The applied logo and indexes are in great shape as well.
The case is super sharp! Never polished and only microscratches that aren't really visible. Seamaster logo on the back is always great to see as well! Like I said, cleanest l've ever seen.
The crown is original and in great shape. No visible wear and winds and sets the time perfectly.
The Crystal is flawless. It has the omega stamp in the center. The beautifully done dome is amazing and adds another dimension to the watch!
The watch is running impeccably! The handwinding movement winds like butter. This watch also features the rare quickset date which makes changing the date super easy and convenient.
And now the original Hoders strap! It’s still in a really good condition and has great stitching.
The price is 550$ + shipping, you can pay by PayPal or bank transfer.

·I don't like the back. Looks like the previous owner sweated acid
