It is fully Omega down to the dial, hands, and original crown and presents very nicely. The original dial has begin to warm to a sepia tone, giving it a true vintage look. The gold-filled top "tropical" steel back case has the look of a solid gold Omega without the price tag.
1960's and early 70's Seamasters are great long-term buys as parts are readily available for their well-made movements, and they're not hard to service.
Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement and installed a brand new original Omega crown. For the finishing touch we have installed a new genuine Teju lizard strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
