: Being the highest bidder on this Seamaster watch, I was
: wondering if it's real, and if it's worth the price.
I have one that looks identical to that one. I paid $285 for it from a reputable dealer. Mine was in 'near mint' condition, included the original signed strap buckle, but did not include the box or the original signed crown. The seller may have misjudged the age, I believe this is more a mid-1960's model.
It is unlikely to be a fake. I have no idea what the pink markers and hands mean. If it is in the condition described, that sounds like a quite reasonable deal.
One interesting item, you advance the date by pulling the crown all the way out. That makes the date jump forward 1 day. To advance several days, you have to pop the crown in and out. Unusual, it is the first watch I've had where the date advanced by a method other than turning the crown.
Good luck!
