Hi,

http://cgi.ebay.in/ANTIQUE-OMEGA-AUTOMATIC-SEAMASTER-WRIST-WATCH-SWISS_W0QQitemZ160249584393QQihZ006QQcategoryZ1183 79QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Can anyone identify this Omega Seamaster? It is available for Rs 15,000 (USD 350 approx).

I am India, and seller lives close to my city, so I can pick it up locally.
How does it look?

Thanks for your time...

Pictures are terrible.

I think that the dial is fake, but the movement is probably real, but in very poor shape. Band is non-Omega aftermarket.

In my opinion, you can do better for $350.

Take care,

Whatever it is, it looks bad... terrible condition. I would stay away from it.

Other than having a bumper movement that needs to be cleaned, its hard give you any more help without better pictures. Try to get better (high resolution) pictures from the seller, especially of the movement and inside caseback. Watch needs a new crown and the movement looks like it needs to be cleaned. At $350 with 2 days to go on the auction plus service fees, I would personally pass on this one.

Good luck,
