At least I found it offensive at first glance. But on further review, I noticed some things I liked: The stretch bracelet is in spectacular condition, and has the # 6 end links: The case still has the original brushed/polished finish, and the edges are st...  

Go for the original. Not easy to find, though.

So, the usual ways are to be considered: The Bay, and the different collectors markets... Good luck. Best, Nicolas

I think you are referring to the Seamaster 300 / 2913....

Which is another story... Even if your dial at the moment say Seamaster, this is clearly a Railmaster / 2914. ยด Early Railmaster had the broad arrow on the hour hand. Later came the Lollipop, but with dauphin hands. The Seamaster on the other hand has the...  

No worries, easy to mix them up! [nt]
