====== UPATE:

Verified genuine via Omega/Watch Maker. Hot damn, I got it for a song and a dance as well. It's actually a 1367.10. Watch maker said he can file the posts back to "true" if I wanted. Wife loves it so maybe when the battery dies I will have him do a full service on it.





Hey folks, figured I bought a watch for the wife on Fleabay and got a great price for it considering the price of a new one. The wife isn't picky so I figured used was the way to go. Seller has great feedback but is someone who re-sells estate property it appears.

Just wanted to confirm what I think (that it is genuine) before I clean it up and let the wife run wild with it (man she is rough on watches, another reason for buying a pre-"loved" watch).

Thanks --

(initial photos removed) -- after cleanup photos a few posts down.

Not an expert on these, but I would say all the signs seem to point to a legitimate example. The diamonds though are a totally separate question.... I have no idea regarding these...

I hear ya, thie pix were taken in a light box (tent) and indoors. They do sparkle like diamonds with proper lighting.. I too am no diamond expert.

PS.. These braclets look fantastic, but let me tell you.. even with the proper tool they can be tricky to size. Spoke with my watch maker and he says he has to fix a lot of them because the gold end caps pop off..... silly.
