Hi all,

thinking about buying my first omega. I really like the Speedmaster tachymeter, black dial, date.

Any general thoughts on this model?

I see a few for sale on with authenticity verified by eBay itself. eBay collects watch, verifies, keeps the watch until sale and then ships.

Is there anything to watch out for? Would you trust this?

The seller is well known and the watches look legit. No red flags here, I think.

 

When did they start doing that?

 

1.5 or 2 years ago. There has been some experience and discussion on OF.
