The second hand option
Happy New Year all!The begining of a new year means we have to stick to our resolutions such as "I will be purchasing an Omega this year!".I am hoping to acquire an Omega 2225.80 and considering making this a second hand purchase. One of my main disadvantages is that there is no AD in my country, where I could look at second hand pieces. (Suspect the only AD then, was not making minimum orders per year to be an AD)I would apprecite any advice regarding sourcing online as I know many members have made some good buys second hand.Forinstance, how would one determine the condition and by extension if the asking price is reasonable? as it may be difficult to tell much, not seeing it in person. Any idea as to what price one in good condition would fetch?I'm even hoping that maybe a WTF member may have one they might consider selling hopefully by the time I am ready to buy.:001_smile

Incoming: First Vintage Ball
Picked up this on the web this weekend...came with a money back guarentee and he said it was keeping time to within a few seconds a day so I took a chance, even though the pics were not great.The seller is a retired railroad man, whose correspondence was impressive, so I decided to take a shot. I will post details and take new pics upon arrival.
