Rules: Postings must be an ad announcing an intent to sell, buy or trade. Full item description and photo(s) must be posted within the message here, not as links to other websites. Links to online auctions and other sites: Links to online auctions, dealer sites or other listings of items are permitted, but you should be careful to ensure that such listings will comply with our other ChronoTrader Policies. In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family"). Photos must be of the actual item for sale in its present condition. No counterfeit or replica products. No post for the same item may be repeated within 7 days, except to lower the asking price. Commercial dealers are limited to three unique posts per day. [More...]
: Hi Will and others ... this is an old thread but it is bears
: resurrecting.
: [name of SELLER redacted] sold the Omega SM300 to me and indeed, as TONI
: said (above in CAPS) the watch sold by [SELLER], [email address of SELLER redacted] is, in fact, a fake. It has an
: Omega dial, hands, movement - but stuffed into a case that
: was not as represented in his offer to sell. It is NOT a
: WatchCo.
: I contacted [SELLER] about this when I found out, after having the
: watch looked at by a watchmaker who pointed out that the watch
: was not right. (This was almost a year after the sale, although
: as I told [SELLER], misrepresentation has no statute of
: limitations.) I offered him a chance to make it right: do the
: right thing or take back the watch and refund monies paid.
: (I can't post multiple images, but if there's interest from the
: community I can set up links to pictures of the watch next to a
: real Omega case, to show the differences).
: Anyway, [SELLER] declined to make the deal right, to refund my money,
: or to make any adjustment.
: So, buyer beware of dealing with [SELLER], [email address of SELLER redacted]. In this thread he states emphatically
: that "it most certainly was not fake" which is not a
: true statement. Either he knew, which would make him a person
: who tells lies, or he didn't know in which case I would question
: his representations about any aspect of the watches that he is
: selling.
:
: [SELLER] - if you're reading this ... This is happening to you as a
: consequence of choices that you have made. Consider the value of
: your reputation measured against money - for that is what is
: what you are choosing to trade-off. Money comes and goes, but
: your reputation is yours forever.
: (Just for background about me: I've been a lurker here, but have
: purchased watches on all the fora. I'm a member of NAWCC and
: abide by the Code of Ethical Conduct in all my dealings. I've
: got over a decade on eBay with 375+ all-positive transactions,
: and many refs here as well. I'm just disappointed in [SELLER].)

Dear EZ
I thought I would include link to a photo of a Vintage Omega Seamaster 300 st 165.024
The watch is being sold via Chronocentric.com and is a fairly recent entry.
You may view the watch and details at:
Vintage Omega Seamaster 300 st 165.024
Please have a look at this one and let us know if it is the same watch you bought.
Cheers
Will
