The dial has staining. It might be donkey shit. That's what the seller said: " DANKE SCHÖN". 😜

Yea I was already factoring a new dial, hands bracelet and service into it, but even after that it's a crazy good deal.

That's what I found strange. Looks like "mud" under the crystal in some places. How did it get there?

Probably the remnants of an internal gasket. Sometimes when they wear out, they turn to goo and get all over the place.

This may be one of those rare occasions where the buyer should send the watch to Bienne and tell Omega to replace everything. Even if it cost $2K to restore, they'd get their money out of it in the end.

Hope this helps,

I'd have probably done something like that, then kept it 😉 but alas, I hesitated too long =(

So glad I don't like chronographs.

My wallet would be hurting.

Thanks for pointing that out. It's not something I was aware of.
