A few days ago I posted regarding a vintage seamaster I was interesting in purchasing which can be found following this link:
https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/123...2&external_collection=NjEwNzU5OTB8OTM4ODgxMjE
upon further research I discovered from the inscription that it appears to have been gifted to a Swedish artist named Karl Axel Perrson. I can see that the crown has since been replaced and there are some small issues with the dial, however being priced at £525 I was wondering whether this is worth the price tag? What are your thoughts omega fans

The Swedish loosely translates to “
for a well-executed recruitment” what could this mean

Very loosely translated.

More like "for a job well done".

"Reymersholm gamla industri" is a company producing chemicals.

Interesting, thanks for the help there

From Sweden I can report that Reymersholm gamla industri AB (today under the slightly less romantic name Kemira AB) produces sulphuric acid and is located in Helsingborg Sweden. The inscription indeed means something along the lines of "For a job well done" but the word used for "job" is slightly more encompassing than to just mean one job and more likely refers to the persons entire career. I'm fairly sure that this is something an employee would have gotten at retirement or after 25 years of service.
