Does this PO look OK?

Gents,

I'd like a quick heads up as to what your initial thoughts are on this Planet Ocean advertised on WUS. To my relatively untrained eye it all seems genuine, and I'm interested in buying it.

I've e-mailed the seller who lives close by, and I've suggested that we meet up somewhere mutually convenient for me to take a good look at it in person. I've suggested the Omega boutique here in New York where they could presumably verify it all for me before I hand over the money.

It's $2700 which works out at around GBP 1700, but there may be room for negotiation, I don't yet know.

Thoughts?

Cheers
Iain

Looks OK to me.

If he comes back to you saying that he's prepared to meet F2F then all should be good. If you can't, for whatever reason, meet up at an Omega Boutique then make sure that you try one on from an Omega Boutique first so you're aware of what you're looking at.

Thanks, I've tried the 45mm PO on before, loved it, so I know it's what I want, I just want to make sure this is all above board before handing over the cash.

Cheers

UPDATE: He's ok with a F2F meeting, so that's encouraging. Thoughts on price? Seems to be the going rate. It's a July 2011 watch so there's still warranty remaining.

If it's a fake, it's a VERY good one. I think you'll be fine!

Looks genuine to me ... Price seems about right too

Looks ok. Make sure bezel lines up with 12. Have been issues with some PO.

Feck - he decided to sell it to another buyer that had been in touch first, and paid by PayPal to secure the deal.
Still on the lookout for a good used 2200.50 either UK or US seller.
