Thanks for the tip @JB and @Sam_w Really like omegas, just worried a vintage may turn into a rather expensive project... is that unfounded? Any experience with the seller and/or servicing a vintage omega locally for a reasonable amount?

Admittedly not with servicing, but I have purchased from him. Item was exactly as described, shipping and communication were fast. Watch was probably ten seconds slow per day, but it was from 1952.. sooo... yeah. As long as you know what to expect when buying a vintage watch e.g. don't get it wet, timekeeping isn't gonna be amazing and so on, then I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Another option would be a vintage Seiko from Karlenko on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/user/karlenko123/posts/
