I saw this watch listed for 756 euros on chrono24, is it worth it?

I'm new to getting vintages, the seller is a watch repairshop and he said it was serviced last month and he only changed the strap and plexiglass (sternkreutz). Is it worth to buy? Thanks everyone!

I don’t know much about vintage Omegas, but I looks legit and overall looks to be in great shape. Movement is beautiful. Sounds, on paper at least, to be a solid deal.

Everything is Omega on that watch and from the same collection or line-up. I personaly think thow, that those are not the correct hands for that particular dial and markers variation. It would more correctly be unpainted all SS hands with lume though the center.

I can be mistaking but I stand by my observation 😄.

SVW is right.  The handset and hour markers do not look to be original.  Omega liked the double indices at 12.  The indices should be thinner. The hands should be polished in a silver tone with a small thread of Tritium in the center.  It looks to be a 1970.  Compare it with similar models.

Hi! yeah I looked through their vintage database, and I would assume that it was repainted. Though if I googled the serial number, 135.041 or 165.041 (i'm not sure), some geneve models also have those two-tone hands. So I'm not really sure since omega's own database doesn't have a picture for this particular model lmao.

here's some that I found:

Omega Geneve 135.041 voor €649,00 - Vintage horloge marktplaats
Omega - Genève - ref. 135.041 - Heren - 1960-1969 - Catawiki
Omega Genève Ref. 165.041 circa 1969 | steel automatic vintage wristwatch - Black Bough | Ludlow
Omega Geneve Automatic 165.041 | Omega Reference Ref ID 165.041 Watch at Chrono24

With the 601 movement the 1969/70 models are identical, from the Omega website:

Omega

Those hands appear on the Dynamic.

Hmm, well that could be. I found this though:
