Hello,
I am new to this group. Always been an Omega admirer, but never had the money. Now 64 years young, It's time for me to buy a vintage Omega, and this Seamaster is for sale close to where I live. Can somebody date this watch and what model it might be?
Is it good for daily use? The watch works, but the button to wind the watch / set the hour is loose (falls out of the watch). The glass was replaced and isn't original, no "Swiss Made" under Seamaster De Ville, and the minute clock hand seems bend. Your input is much appreciated. Is it worth buying and price indication if possible.
Thank you.

AI is (can be) your friend.

Your issue with the stem coming is a 2 piece stem that wears out over time and is easily fixed by a watchmaker.

Is it worth buying? Sure. At what price. $200-$400 for a gold filled depending on condition. Solid gold would have a lot to do with the weight. Take it to a watchmaker and he will provide you with information needed before you purchase.

Looks solid gold to me.

Dont be coy. Tell us the asking price and we’ll comment on if it’s good deal.

The minute hand is damaged, the watch will need a full service which will cost $500 range ddepending on needed parts, the dial is missing SWISS at bottom, and cost will be much higher due to gold value.

What is asking price?
You will probably be better off and pay much less with a stainless steel version in excellent condition than this one.
Take your time dont marry the first one you meet.

As I told you before at the other ,Facebook Forum, the Minute Hand ( if not broken ) , can easily bent back into original Shape by a Watchmaker and refilled black in the back. Even a replacement is quite cheap. Your Watch is solid gold . It all depends on your buying Price, which you can tell us for further Guidance.

Thank you all for your know-how. Indeed I will only buy one Omega. So better I buy the right one. This watch comes without warranty or service by a dealer. Price is 2.000 euro. Let me know what you think.

Thank you so much.AI i do not know. I am depending on forums to know if this will be a good buy to wear daily. I'm Dutch speaking, so excuse me for my poor (school) English.
