HE valve is in the right place. Back and clasp look good.

i was going to bid on this. did it sell for a resonable price?

[shimside11]

After looking closer, something seems off. The bracelet looks like a speedy bracelet, but not quite right. The price that it ended up at is too low for an automatic seamaster, but too high for a rep. There are no buttons on the sides of the clasp.

I'm not really an Omega expert, but it just seems a little wierd. That HE valve is right where is should be, which is very rare for a rep. Maybe it's a frankenwatch. There are way too many seamaster models out there which makes it hard to keep track.

Anybody else want to speculate, or maybe somebody has an educated opinion.

call me racist but I wouldn't trust anything from thailand being gen.

It`s Gen.

Don`t make the mistake to compare it with the SMP man size !

It`s boy-size or lady-size, as you like it.

The watch looks genuine to me. It's got an original movement, serial number, good dial, perfect bezel. As mentioned above, it's the midsized version (36mm).

The only thing that looks off to me is the bracelet. I'm guessing that that's a rep bracelet. I don't think a genuine Omega bracelet would have 1 piece end links, they'd be 3 piece (two polished pieces of metal inserted into the end link). Not to metion that i've never seen that style bracelet on a 'bond' model Seamaster before.

The bracelet is wrong, but replacement links for the gen band are about $75.00 a piece shipped (trust me I bought them before)... so if he had two links that were pretty bad, it was probably cheaper to just buy a rep bracelet.
