    I got an offer for a vintage Omega Bullhead and the owner wants $6.5K. Is it a fair price? Thanks.

    Looks a bit too polished to me. The dial and hands have dirty lume and is that 12 o clock crown the correct one?

    For me too expensive for the condition

    Might just be a bad photo, but it does look way over polished

    It could be lapped by someone like STS

    I have seen the watch and it doesn't look over polished. Could be the a reflection when I took a photo of it. The dial is in very good condition. This is the same collector who sold me the Enicar Sherpa Graph.

    Case definitely looks like it has lost it's sunburst finish and bezel sharpness compared to other examples:

    Honestly it's not a good example.

    It is cheaper than others, and that is why

    The lemania is lovely, Bucherer also made an example and Omega made a couple of prototypes with the silver dial (same as the lemania) one of which I have seen

    I think its over polished as well and It would have more factors for setting that price

    It always looked over-polished but the photos have made it pretty clear. Shame but the sharpness of these cases is what makes them so appealing.
