Omega

Life is curious, but the phenomenon is well known by a majority of us: It is when you loose something that you really feel how much you miss it. This is certainly the case of the Seamaster 300. I had a very nice CK 14 755, which I sadly lost. With a bit o...  

Hi Nicolas, I wish I had such a wonderful piece in my collection - you seem to be a lucky guy this time. I wish you good luck! best erich

When I fell on this one, I had the feeling it could replace my ( not too bad ) 14755. I will soon know if I can get it. But it sings loud to me. Best, and thanks for your nice words, Erich. Nicolas.

Nicolas, I was under the impression that you are in vacations! This CK 2913 is a good reason to return. Cheers and good luck on this one.

But I'm preparing my " come back ". Thanks a lot, Nilo. Best, Nicolas.

But if I can for a few of them, yes, it would be great. I specially love this one, as I am a fan of Vintage Diving watches, and find that it is one of the most beautiful from this golden era, the Fifties. Fingers crossed. Best, Nicolas.

...and a very acceptable example. Bezel does look replaced, but it's not out of character condition-wise for the watch as a whole. Hope all the stars align for you.

Therefore, the rest of the watch is in awesome condition, and it sings so loud to me! Best, my friend. Nicolas. This message has been edited by amanico on 2011-08-23 23:29:52

Hi Mr. Snak What do you not like about the bezel? Good Hunting Bill Sohne

...even harder to identify considering the great overall condition of the watch and the angle of photography. Looks good in any respect.

There is someone, I don't remember the specifics (but I do have his email address stashed somewhere…), who is able to repair these bezels, originally made of bakelite, and now often found in very bad shape. From what I have seen, he does a very good job. ... 

I sent him my bezel on my 14755, and he really did an awesome job. I may have his details somewhere... The only con is the requested time: 3 months for mine. But the quality is here. Best, Nicolas.

I personally think it doesn't matter because the watch overall looks great. If it was redone by the Italian craftsman referred to here, it is as good a restoration as you are going to get. If I were to cast "some doubt" I would have pointed out that it wa...

And regret that decision to this day. I hope you don't make the same mistake I did!

Once I will get this one ( IF I get it ), I know myself, I will hunt a CK 2914... Then, I will be tempted with the 2915... But I feel there are worse things in life. Best, And Thanks! Nicolas;

Sincerely hope you succeed in getting this one. BEST OF LUCK Fingers crossed. Ed

You probably already know how I feel about that one, Nicolas. And the bezel is already done. Fingers crossed! Alex This message has been edited by AAP on 2011-08-24 08:34:35

I really hope you get it, my friend! The day I start with Omega I hope to find me one of these… So beautiful – looking a lot like another watch we know very well…! Best Blomman

In your collection. They are quite hard to find in good condition, though. Will tell you soon if luck is one my side. Best, Nicolas.

Good luck Nicolas!

. . . is soon? In time for Friday Wrist Scan, I hope ;-) . . .

Therefore I have to work on my summer pics, and to call the seller to see if we can close the deal. But the good news is that he ( this bloody Devil ) let me the watch for the holidays, just to " help " me to take the right decision. So, soon is not today... 

Those are hard to come buy especially in good condition. congrats on your purchase. best regards georges
