2015 Omega Seamaster Co-Axial Chronometer >15,000 Gauss, Black Vertical Line Dial, Yellow Checkered Seconds Hand, on the Original Stainless Bracelet, with full set of box and papers.

Ref. 231.10.42.21.01.002

I won the above watch earlier today with a bid of $3,400, or about $3,700 after fees and other junk. How’d I do on this deal? Although I feel like I did good and am genuinely excited I won, I can’t help but to feel maybe a little buyers remorse. It did come with the leatherette box which I’m not keen on since the wood boxes as so much nicer. Idk, let me know what you all think. Thanks!

Really hope that’s enough characters, my posts always get booted lol.

Can I ask where or what website you bid on it? I’ve always been hesitant to try this with the number of fakes out there

This was my first time using Grailzee, I was hesitant, but decided to give it a shot. They use a reputable Authenticator prior to making payment or shipping the watch. Also matching B&P helps with peace of mind for a non-entry level watch like this. eBay’s authentication service is also good, it costs $80 if the watch costs less than $2,000. Hope that helps.

That was the first 15k gauss release with the bumblebee second hand. Very nice

This isn’t discounted by Omega as far as I know, are you saying 2015 is the first year for this reference? For something that’s supposed to be anti-magnetic, the bumblebee seconds hand sure had a strong pull on me 🧲.
