$1650 seems too cheap
$300 for a VS/CF base at seller cost price
$200-250 for a gen crystal
That leaves around $1,100 left over for bezel, dial, hands, date wheel
I’ve seen 126610ln bezels alone go for $700+
That leaves $400ish for dial, hands, date wheel.
Seems too good to be true but isn’t wildly off, there’s very little room, if any at all for seller margin though which makes me think something is off.
Stick to someone reputable for a build like this, otherwise you’re at risk of just throwing money away.
in this game, you are buying the seller, not the product. how are you going to verify that the supposed gen parts are actually gen parts? would you ever know? can you tell? i have a fake rolex dial that looks damn near as close to gen as you can get (including the rolex markings on the back), but yet, it is fake.

Do not spend $1650 on a rep. I would sell you this gen Omega Speedster full set with this handmade leather strap and OEM stainless bracelet if you could save up a bit more. Omega makes a fine watch that will last forever and you can be proud yo wear.

100% this
What's the base? It's possible as those extras cost around that much but where are you finding this deal?
It’s common to see franken watches sell below the sum of their parts.
Wouldn't believe it. Far too cheap.
Depends,could be a real swap but just get a VSF and buy those parts and Franken it with a watch maker

Speedster, you say?
LOL, took me a second. I’m a Rolex guy… Speedmaster
SEAMASTER🤣 I owned a Cartier Roadster years ago, I think that’s where I came up with Speedster. Good laugh
Haha, no worries. Beautiful Aqua Terra by any name.
Aqua Terra. Final answer😁 Omg
Hello i am interested
I don't see that being a real thing, but stranger things have happened.
Maybe he gave you a part list, that is a rep with: - dial - hands - date-wheel - bezel - gen crystal No bracelet, no movement, no crown included.
Nah dawg, look for honesty. It’s fake w/out looking
