Re:Did I get a good deal or get ripped off? How about a pic?

We really need to see a picture of your watch to help judge whether it is authentic or not. Can you post one? See the directions to do so, at the top of this page. It would also be very beneficial to see the serial number of the watch which is inside the case as well as the watch's movement number. I'll presume you don't know how to properly remove the case back. A local jeweler or watchmaker could perform that task for you. $350 for an authentic Seamaster automatic watch would be a very good deal if it is authentic

: Hi All,

: Soliciting your advice. Whats a fair price to pay for this watch?

: Just bought a (what I think is 90s/2000s) Stainless Steel Omega
: Seamaster Automatic Chronometer. It has a white face, with the
: center/inner part having waves. Looks to be in excellent/near
: mint (crystal is perfect) and very minimal scuffs on the
: bracelet. Bracelet is marked St-823 (and clasp 1501/823). It
: also came with the red inner box, white outer box, all the
: booklets and the warranty credit card thing.

: Whats a fair price to pay for this watch? Was $350.00 too much or
: was it a fair deal?

: Thanks
