tim2827 41 Posted June 8, 2019 I bought this from eBay, a seller from Japan. He guaranteed it is gen. Upon arrival, I checked and I believed it is rep. Any help from expertise to give your views is much appreciated so that I can initiate returns if not gen.

Mkiv 2 Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) I'm guessing fake based on the simple fact that the caseback says Muslum instead of Museum. Edited June 8, 2019 by Mkiv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuvarsit 6 Posted June 8, 2019 Also movement decoration and typings are very low quality . Omega logo seems very weird not like actual logo of omega( maybe vintage have that type , not sure about that) ebay is safe you can ask for refund Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadApple 13,081 Posted June 8, 2019 I hope you haven't lost too much money. It's worth about $20 just for the comedy value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thejudge 29 Posted June 9, 2019 Look like its a very poor copy of a 1970's Seamaster 600 or similar. I wouldn't be too fooled by the logo as a weird logo is pretty normal for a watch of that age. Its seems to be fraken of serveral reps the caseback with this misspelling is should be for a 1945 officer chronograph remade in 2003 so a weird one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
