This one is marketed as mid-1900s Omega Automatic in an auction house. Does somebody know what it its in detail and from approximately what period?
First Omega Automatic, 1942-43, cal 28.10 RA.PC, or possibly 30.10 Excellent condition. Beautiful dial IMO. Crown is replaced
Thanks a lot Marturx! The price is very reasonable (at least at the moment) so I think I will go for it
The price got over what I was willing to pay. It's a shame, it's a nice watch. Auction ending soon, price now at 360 EUR + auction costs so about 450EUR / ~600 USD. I don't know how much these go for usually, the auction estimate was 300 EUR and I could have paid something up to that. What is a fair value in your opinion?
I agree that the condition is very nice there is no guarantee about how it works though, so I think I don't really want to chance it too much in this situation where I've already bought watches recently - hobby is getting out of hands. Hmmm. The strap is original also etc. I really want to bid more, but probably I need to know when to fold sometimes as well
Ended up at 515 EUR, USD 700. Didn't get it this time, and marturx was right the price didn't stay as cheap as it was originally - was auctioned for over a week and all the big action happened during the last hour - like usual - the guy who outbid me a few times actually didn't win and some dark horse bidder number 7 got it The auction house was quite low on their estimate.
