Omega Seamaster 300

This is a great watch. I've since given it to my brother-in-law to be. He really likes it. Vintage Omega Seamaster 300. Original case, movement and bezel/insert. Restoration involved a complete movement overhaul by a c.m.w/Omega specialist, and sourcing of dial from New Zealand. The crystal is NOS Omega, and it's fitted with new Omega hands, Luminova type, obtained from an Australian seller, I believe. Silver date wheel was replaced with black.Watch is fitted here on a steel Omega Speedmaster bracelet. The endpieces needed a little filing to get them to fit the case. The Omega dial is inky-black. T SWISS MADE T is positioned above index. The tritium is no longer of sufficient radioactivity, on both dial and bezel insert, to provide any luminescence, but both are aged similarly. The bezel insert is in fine shape. from.http://alanwatch.homestead.com/seamaster300.html
