Good price too.

Did you buy it, or did you resist temptation?

Box and strap are not original. This is just well preserved 60ies omega.

Sold a few with original straps and red omega boxes a while ago for lesser price

I did not buy it. Whatever money might have paid for it (and then some!) is instead paying for a week on Cape Cod in a 300+ year old house. I was simply excited to see such a watch in a multi-vendor antique store like this one. The Omega was not the typical watch I see in these stores. Nor is this store the type of place where I’d want to be buying a vintage watch, as these are not watch specialists.

These come by.

I have found some vintage gems in local pawn shops. Among bunch of mobile phones, gold bracelets and usual Fossil / Nautica / Michael Kors I dug out great watches for small prices.

That was few years ago untill they started to check old watches and prices on bay.
