: Today I purchased a Seamaster 300M
: profeesional.

: The watch was bought from an authorized dealer
: listed online. He provided me with warranty
: card, chronometer and ico cards with
: matching serial numbers

: I am writing because my brother has this same
: watch and the watch that I just acquired
: varies in a few ways.

: First on the back of the casing on top of the
: seamaster animal engraving and the waves
: around it there is an additional engraving
: of an omega logo enclosed in a small globe.
: This engraving is located on the rim that is
: outside the waves. My brother's watch does
: not have such an engraving and I have not
: been able to locate a watch that does on the
: web.

not unusual for the older years not to have th globe.

: Second the 825 engraving on the bracelet is
: located on the middle of the bracelet, while
: on my brother's it is located on right side
: of the bracelet and the engraving is much
: smaller

mine is in the middle, and mine is authentic

: Third the waves on my watch due not stick out
: nearly as much as on my brother's watch

picture didn't work, so can't really tell.

: Fourth, there seems to be a scratch all around
: the wave engraving on the rear casing.

don't know what that is

: Fifth on the bracelet links close the clasp my
: watch has the following engraving GAG while
: his has JAI.

mine says JAG

: As well my bracelet links have arrows close to
: the casing while his has arrows close to the
: clasp.

I have arrows in both spots

: Finally the watch's serial number are located
: very close to each other but not exactly in
: the same place.

not sure about this

: Could you please inform whether the watch that
: I enquired is authentic.
