Does this appear to be a true issued SM 300 to you? I know there are loads of fakes out there, but what's your best guess?

A real mine field that model in general. The lugs bars look OK. Should it not have a circle T on it? I'm at the point where I can't necessarily tell with any degree of confidence anymore.

Thanks Zaf.

I think you're right - there's just no good way to feel good about the authenticity of these watches. Having said that, I'd love to acquire a real one!

For a real one, start with an Omega archive lookup, that shows it was delivered to the UK. That would be a must have.
