The price totally blows my plans for my next watch (was saving up for a Milgauss or Explorer 1), but hey, she's worth it... plus I feel a little guilty having a nice Omega and her wearing an e-bay special.
Btw, amazing steal on that Omega. Even if it doesn't run, hey $1.

Nice watch, love the steel blue hands on that.
The fiancée loves the Omega. She wears it all the time. I'm glad she does, so I don't feel bad about wearing my Omega around. haha.
Used Rolexes can be had for decent prices. I'm assuming you already looked that route?
$700ish to restore the $1 Omega. The Omega is a Seamaster bumper watch, dated from the late 40's, early 50's!
