Thank you so much for your help, I guess I'll wait for something better to come up. 😀
No original Omega crystal, which is kind of a bummer as well and suggests that something might have happened to the watch in the past. But that doesn't really matter since the watch is already out of your scope anyway, I guess.
What I do find worth mentioning, though, is that the seller showing those poor timegrapher readings is at least somewhat transparent. I assume there are plenty of sellers out there who would rather leave that picture out so as not to hurt their own sale.
Just as likely when sellers don't know how to read a timegrapher 😁 They'll see the reasonable rate and believe that shows it is running well 😁
That said, in addition to being a very sick movement, $750 for a 1012 movement watch is on the high end. You should be able to get a 'perfect'/'near perfect' version at that price point.
SIDE NOTE: DON'T trust sellers that say "serviced" (unless they are actively a watchmaker, like some of the folks in our classifieds). Assume you're going to have to pay for a service afterwards anyway. A lot of these watch sellers will pay for a "just good enough to sell" service, which is basically anything from a "get a photo of a good timegrapher result", just a regulation, or some very minor oiling without cleaning.
And THAT is if they aren't lying about it being 'serviced' at all.
