    Just looking for opinions on this from sharper/more knowledgeable eyes.
    Authentic? Looks like it needs service?
    This is currently in my price range... Think it will be much higher by the end of the time frame?

    First one is a poor redial. Avoid.

    Second one looks legit; it appears the crown and crystal have been replaced by generic ones. I am a little cautious on the dial - while it looks original, that circle in the middle is something I've not seen before. If the price is pretty low you could pick it up later - the original bracelet and not much loss of gold plating is a bonus. Be prepared for an overhaul at the watchmaker's though - no telling how much rotor wear there may be once it's opened up.

    EDIT - Request to mods to move this to the Vintage Omega sub-forum please.
