Identify Your Watch

Omega Watches We Evaluate

The Speedmaster, Seamaster, Aqua Terra and Constellation are the Omega collections we see most often. Within each, the exact reference and generation decide what a watch is, so we treat the collection name as a starting point. Every submission is reviewed individually for eligibility.

Speedmaster

Professional and other Speedmaster lines

Not every Speedmaster is a Moonwatch, which is why we ask for the reference before anything else when you sell an Omega Speedmaster. The Speedmaster Professional is a hand-wound chronograph whose movement has changed over the decades, while many other Speedmaster lines, such as the Reduced, are automatic. On older examples we look closely at whether the dial, hands and bezel insert are original or were replaced during a service, and whether the bracelet and clasp suit the reference.

Helpful to tell us: the reference from the warranty card or service papers if you have them, whether it’s hand-wound or automatic, its service history and any replaced parts, and the bracelet or strap it’s on.

Seamaster

Diver 300M · Planet Ocean · Seamaster 300 · vintage

Seamaster is a family name shared by watches with little else in common, from mid-century dress watches to modern divers. To sell an Omega Seamaster, we first identify the sub-family and reference: a Diver 300M, a Planet Ocean and a Seamaster 300 are different collections, and generations within each one trade differently. Each is reviewed for eligibility by reference. Our guide to compare Seamaster families can help you place yours.

Helpful to tell us: the reference and case size, the bezel and dial, the bracelet or strap, and any service work or replaced parts. We don’t assess water resistance from photos, so there’s no need to test it.

Aqua Terra

Part of the Seamaster family

The Aqua Terra belongs to the Seamaster family but has no diving bezel, and many of its references look alike at a glance. What separates them is in the details: case size and metal, dial color and pattern, the movement and its generation, and whether it’s on a bracelet or a strap. Those details are what we need to tell one Aqua Terra from another.

Helpful to tell us: the reference, case size and metal, the dial, the movement if you know it, and whether the watch is on its original bracelet or strap.

Constellation

Vintage and modern

A vintage Constellation and a modern one are compared against entirely different markets. Older examples are judged largely on dial condition, originality and the movement. Modern references, recognizable by the claws on the bezel, are judged on their exact configuration, bracelet and condition. Constellations come with quartz and automatic movements, and each is assessed on its own reference rather than a blanket preference for one movement type.

Helpful to tell us: the reference or approximate era, the movement type, the dial and case condition, and the bracelet or strap.

Vintage, non-running or a model not listed here? Send the details and tell us what you know about its service history. We confirm eligibility before anything ships.

How We Assess It

What Affects Your Omega Offer

Collection names don’t set the number; references do. We read every Omega the same way, which we call the Omega Reference Read: identify the watch exactly, then check how much of it is still as Omega made it.

FactorWhat we look atHow it affects the assessment
Reference and generationThe full reference and its production era, such as an earlier Diver 300M versus a current Master Chronometer versionSets the comparison group. Generations that look alike can trade at different levels.
MovementHand-wound, automatic or quartz, and whether the caliber is right for the reference; running order and, on chronographs, start, stop and resetA movement that doesn’t match the reference, or doesn’t run properly, changes the assessment.
OriginalityDial, hands, bezel insert, crown and pushers, checked against the referenceFactory parts are the baseline. Replaced or aftermarket parts are noted one by one.
Service partsParts fitted during a service, and whether you kept the originalsA service replacement can matter little on one reference and a great deal on another. We judge it by reference, not with a fixed deduction.
Bracelet and linksThe correct bracelet and end links for the reference, clasp wear, stretch and spare linksMissing links, or a bracelet from another reference, are factored in.
ConditionCase and polishing, crystal, bezel, dial and general wearHonest wear is expected. Heavy polishing and damage cost more than most owners expect.
DocumentationWarranty card, box, service records and any archive documents you already haveSupports identification and history. Missing papers don’t rule a watch out.
Market evidenceRecent completed sales of the reference, with analytics sources such as WatchCharts and open marketplaces such as Chrono24 for contextGrounds the offer in what comparable watches actually sell for.

An asking price isn’t an offer. Listings show what sellers hope to get, and dealer prices include margin and warranty. A purchase offer is what a buyer will actually pay for your specific watch, after the cost of authenticating, holding and reselling it. If you’re still researching, here’s how we understand watch value and purchase offers.

Before You Submit

Photos and Details for an Omega Offer

Start with a clear photo of the dial. The rest of the list helps us confirm the reference, the movement and which parts are original.

In the form

  • The collection, plus the reference if you know it
  • Whether it runs and keeps time and, on a chronograph, whether it starts, stops and resets
  • Its service history and any replaced parts, as far as you know
  • What comes with it: box, warranty card, extra links, service papers
  • Any known modifications or authenticity concerns
  • One clear photo of the dial, straight on

By reply to your confirmation email

  1. The dial and hands straight on, in daylight
  2. The caseback, showing its markings
  3. Both sides of the case, with the crown and any pushers
  4. The bezel, close up
  5. The bracelet or strap and clasp, plus any spare links
  6. Any areas of wear or damage
  7. The warranty card and service records

Photograph the watch as it is. Don’t open the caseback, remove the bracelet or test the watch in water. Before photographing receipts or papers, cover names, addresses and payment details.

Our Omega reference and serial number guide shows where each number is found. A serial helps identify an Omega, but it can’t establish authenticity or an offer on its own.

The Process

From Your Omega Submission to Payment

The same five steps apply whether you ship from another state or meet us in New York.

  1. Submit the details

    Complete the form with one clear photo of the dial, then reply to the confirmation email with the rest of your photos and any service records.

  2. Initial review and offer

    Xenon and our team review the reference, photos and description. We usually respond with an initial offer the same day. It’s provisional: it’s based on what we can see and is subject to inspection and authentication.

  3. Shipping or an appointment

    If you’d like to go ahead, wait for our instructions before sending anything. Once our team confirms the next step, we provide packing guidance and a prepaid, tracked, insured FedEx overnight label. In the New York area, you can arrange an appointment instead.

  4. Inspection and final offer

    We authenticate the watch and check the movement, dial, hands, bezel and bracelet against your photos and description. If anything differs, we explain what we found and how it changes the offer. You decide whether to accept the final offer.

  5. Payment

    Once you accept the final offer, we pay by bank wire or Zelle. When the funds appear depends on your bank and the payment method’s processing.

Meeting in New York

To sell your Omega in New York, we set a meeting after you submit your details; there are no walk-in hours. See how New York appointments work.

Shipping from another state

We buy from sellers in all 50 states, and only within the US. Confirm the shipping arrangements with our team before you send your Omega.

Before you ship

  • Only send a watch you own or are authorized to sell.
  • Tell us about any authenticity concerns, service replacements or aftermarket parts before it ships.
  • Wait for our shipping instructions and label. Never send a watch unannounced.
  • Ask our team how a return would be handled if you decline the final offer, before the watch ships.
Common Questions

Omega Selling Questions

Can I sell an Omega without its box or warranty card?

Yes. Tell us what you have. A warranty card, box and service records help with identification and history, but completeness is one factor among several, and its weight varies by reference. There’s no fixed deduction for a watch without them.

Do you evaluate vintage or non-running Omega watches?

Yes. Describe the condition, including whether it runs and any service work you know about, and send photos. We confirm eligibility before you ship. Please don’t arrange a repair first; tell us what’s wrong instead.

Why do two Speedmasters or Seamasters receive different offers?

Because they’re usually different watches under one name. The reference, generation and movement set the comparison group, then originality and condition separate one example from another: a replaced dial or bezel insert, missing links or heavy polishing all count. We explain the factors behind your offer.

Should I service or polish my Omega before requesting an offer?

Ask us before you spend money or alter the watch. Polishing removes metal, a service can replace original parts, and the cost isn’t necessarily recovered in the offer. Send it as it is and tell us about any problems.

Is my Omega serial number enough for an offer?

No. A serial helps identify the watch alongside the reference and photos, but it can’t confirm authenticity or set a price on its own, and the watch is still inspected before a final offer. Our Omega serial number guide explains what it can tell you.

Can I ship from another US state or meet in New York?

Either. From anywhere in the US, wait for our instructions; once the next step is confirmed, we send packing guidance and a prepaid, tracked, insured FedEx overnight label. In New York, meetings are by appointment. Either way, the final offer follows inspection and authentication, and after you accept it we pay by bank wire or Zelle.

Ready to Sell Your Omega?
