Hi All,

I'm in the market for a pre-owned Omega Seamaster PO black bezel with white numbers on a bracelet. 42mm, with the 2500C movement.
After seeing various pieces for sale it seems like the going rate for that watch in a 95%+ condition boxed with papers seems to be £1300 so that’s my budget.
I am based in Warwickshire and I am willing to deal in person within reasonable distance or via post.
Let me know if you know of any for sale that meet the criteria. I know that Dom H is on the case but they seem to be thin on the ground second hand at the moment.

Warm Regards

Has no-one seen any? Seem to be rare on the pre-owned market at the moment.

Yes, they are hard to find! It appears that there are a lot of 45mm versions for sale.

Yeah I have noticed that as well, but sadly the 45mm does not sit very well on my wrists!

I am in Chester this weekend so I shall have a browse through some shops and see if there is anything about.

Register on TZ-UK and get 50 sensible posts. Judging by how frequently these come up, you've got plenty of time.

I'm a bit ignorant - why the specific movement i.e. 2500C?

I have been told that is the one to go for.

As far as I am aware applications to TZ are not open at the moment?
