eBay Finds: A Vintage LED Bowmar that works, A Seiko 6105, & One Sweet PloProf



eBay Finds is back! This bi-monthly installment will feature a selection of watches currently listed on eBay that have caught the eye of editor Christoph McNeil. If you come across any hidden gems on the ?Bay drop us a note at [email protected] for potential inclusion!

Vintage Omega PloProf

Starting off this edition of eBay Finds with a bang! This vintage Omega PloProf is the bomb (see what I did there"). The ProPlof is a legendary diver from Omega, a truly purpose-built too watch that is robust as it is unique. It is also a highly sought after diver from one of the most collected vintage watch brands. This ref 166.077 looks to be in excellent original condition. Case has nice sharp edges and factory brushed finish, and looks unpolished. The acrylic bezel, while it has lots of scratches, is in great shape. The dial looks nearly perfect, as do the hands. There are many variations and iterations that were made of the PloProf, and to be clear I?m not fully up on all the nuances. And since this one is not going to be cheap, be sure to do your due diligence and research if you plan to bid. That said, if I were in the market for one of these bad boys, I would definitely bid on this one. Editor’s note: this one qualifies for eBay’s Authenticity guarantee. View auction here.
