Morning folks,

Having had a lucky escape, thanks to the forum and its members, I'm looking for a PO, I don't want to buy new as I want it for my daily wearer for work, I'm sure some will understand that if I buy new ill be worrying about knocking it about too much whereas a used one already with a few marks in my mind stops me worrying about that. I have a GMT that My wife bought me (new)a few years ago that I wear most of the time, scratches I don't mind but wearing at work I prefer not, anyway, to the point........having spent a few hours doing comparisons with my photos of the fake and genuine have I learnt anything.....I hope so....this pics is taken from the net and I would say is genuine....am I right????

After 30 years in the waiting.......GMT IIc

I'm not happy with that dial. Less blurry photos are needed

I agree with Joe... Something seems off -

Either blurry photos, or not as crisp as it should be dial finish.

The bezel pearl also looks suspect...

Why not just buy from a boutique?

Chrono version for comparison if that helps ?

Thanks for the replies and advice, really appreciate it.....taken the advice, buying a used one from an authorised omega service centre, few quid more but what buys peace of mind??
