Hi,

Looking to get into my first vintage Omega Seamaster and wanted to get some thoughts on the attached. Anything stand out as being off? Comes from a pretty reputable vintage seller but wanted to check before i pull the trigger.

Thanks!

Looks good and importantly, attractive. All come down to price.

Not that I know, the seller hasn’t noted that they were either.

Are you sure? The almost untouched brushing on the case sides combined with the honest wear of the rest of the case does suggest a re-brush.
Still; attractive piece!

I don’t see anything on the pictures to suggest the hands have been relumed

Nice example, 1966 watch, hands may be relumed, but would like to see the UV light reaction first.

Sad, I'm also looking for a 165.024 or 166.024, but I prefer the big triangle.
