Not great pictures. The dial LOOKS right, but that Rotor doesn't match photos I've seen online. That said, the jewel count is 'right', as is the movement number (1140). But I'm still suspicious.

That said, those Reduced Speedmasters are way lower value than a Professional, and, IMO, the 18k ones are only being sold at that price because of the gold, which is being severely over-paid-for in those (at least based on online values). NOTE that servicing those is quite expensive, in part due to the 'piggy back' chronograph.

Serial number: 53056717
Article ref: 36121020

Serial number matches what the watch should be. Nothing else jumps out as a concern.

Not the OP, but curious: What is that 'article ref'? That doesn't google to anything, is it a reference to something in the Omega database that isn't public?

Do you know the reference # of this watch? Closest I could find was 157.0032, but as I said, the rotor doesn't match, and none I see photos for have the serial number on the outside of case back.

That is the reference #. The 157.0032 is a case number, not the watch reference number.
