FS: FS: 2531.80 "Bond" Seamaster

I have an Omega Seamaster Pro for sale. I purchased this watch new in May 1997. I have all papers except the warranty card, inner and outer boxes (and wallet for the booklets), both plastic hang tags, extra links and pins, the original receipt, and even the sticker that was on the back of the watch.

Condition:

Bezel insert has a scratch approx. 4 mm long horizontally from the 55 marker towards the 12 marker. Bezel is also a bit faded to a slightly lighter blue as you'd expect for a 9 year old daily wear watch.

Crystal is perfect, as is the face. Lume on the 8 o'clock spot has a small dark spot on it, but all lume on hands and face is still bright as is the lume dot on the bezel.

The tip of the second hand has faded to a light pinkish orange (this happened within the first year or so, nothing new for these).

Case and bracelet both show normal wear for 9 years old. I've never had it refinished, I'd just as soon let it show honest wear. There are no scratches or gouges that wouldn't polish out, except as described on the bezel insert. The watch has been engraved on the outer ring of the caseback. I'm thinking it would polish out if you were bothered by it.

The watch has been serviced twice, once at about the three year mark, and again this past February. No issues, problems or repairs, just routine services. The watch currently runs at +3 sec/day.

No pictures currently available, but will honor a good faith 3-day inspection with your money back. The watch is better than it probably sounds in this description.

Asking $850 shipped in CONUS only. Postal M.O. only, or cash if face to face in/around San Clemente, Ca.

Most commonly asked question answered: Vet bills, I'd rather have my dog than this watch.
