    This one is up for sale for EUR 300,-. Has been up previously (at least, I believe I have seen it before from the same seller).

    I was told previously that it is possibly a cal. 552 from 1963, prob 14.70x

    Any thoughts on the watch? Is it 36mm or smaller?

    As far as I can tell it is all original including strap and box. Unfortunately no papers. Case looks sharp and the crystal needs some polishing. I am only afraid that it will be quite small and thus overpriced (if I won't wear it even EUR 100,- would be overpriced). Should I go for it?

    Sellers says it is not serviced, as was expected. It is in running condition though.

    It is a ref 14071 33,5mm without crown. Nice watch for a good price.

    33.5 is a bit small I must say. I have requested some additional pictures to put it into perspective. Usually I wear 36mm watches and I find that to be the best size for a watch.

    I disagree, this looks more like a ref. 14762 which is 35mm. Front and back of OP watch look identical to my 14762 and assuming it's watch strap is 18mm, like almost all of these Seamasters, this makes more sense looking at case size compared to strap width.

    That was a typo:oops: it should have been 14763 not 14762.

    OP's watch is indeed 33,5 mm. It's in very good all original condition, with Omega leatherband and box. It's nothing wrong with the price IMO. It sounds like a good price. I'm surprised if it hasn't been sold. Maybe it's because it's goldcap? It may be out of fashion right now.
