Hi,

Looking at purchasing this Seamaster. Interested in peoples thoughts…


In outstanding vintage condition with original egg shell white dial with crosshair feature, silver hands and applied hour batons with onyx inserts. Near mint condition.

The calibre 503 automatic movement is recently serviced and keeping excellent time.

Greetings new nameless member. The description is a bit high on hyperbole- far from “near mint”. It is an attractive watch if you are looking for a fun vintage omega that shows a bit of a life. Price is always a factor- for $300, it’s a nice watch. For $800, pass, for $1.5k, the seller is looking for a sucker.

I agree. Mediocre piece (dial damage, soft case), but could be an ok entry for a newbie if it's not too expensive.

Those guys doing the "service" didn't even see that the onyx inlays at two and nine are misalinged
